I have had this for over a week. I do not recall having hit it on anything so it is making finding the cause rather difficult. I have seen one doctor and was told it could possibly be an inflamed cyst. He gave me antibiotics (not sure why). I have taken them and have seen no difference. I am 33, so please no one assume I am 15 and just developing boobs. I have been searching the internet and everything seems to lead to breast cancer sites. I really doubt that. I just want to know if anyone else has had something similar or knows someone who has.

A bruise can have what feels like a lump under it. Make sure you finish your meds. If it does not go away in 5 or 6 more days (or lessen in size), I would go to my OB-GYN.

If your doctor gave you antibiotics without doing a biopsy first then you need to find a new doctor. How does he/she know if it is an inflamed cyst or not? Go to an oncologist and have them look at it. It is better to be safe than sorry. If your insurance needs you to have a referral, go back to the original doctor and ask for a second opinion.

It could be a cyst, a fat ball, or cancer....You should try going to another doctor and demand a mamogram or sonogram of the area...I had a small lump on my left breast a couple of years ago and was terrified...had a sonogram done and it turned out to be just a fat ball...I would consult with another doctor and get some kind of test done to make sure of what it is.
Hope this helps and you get the answers you need..:-)

The antibiotics would help an inflamed cyst. If you have taken them with no improvement, you need to see the doctor again. It still could be an inflamed cyst that is resistant to that antibiotic.
