You should see your doctor and be evaluated. There are many benign reasons for a lump, but you cannot be sure without an evaluation. You really should get a mammogram , regardless of your evaluation.
You should see your provider and get evaluated right away. The lump could be benign, but it is very important that you seek a professional evaluation because prevention is better than care. . You should get a mammogram, It is very important that you get one done.
Contact your OBGYN provider or your PCP, tell them your symptoms, have a clinical breast exam as well as a mammogrom, and possibly an ultrasound of the area. Don't panic, breast cancer is usually not painful, and most lumps turn out be benign.
