hello namratha,
According the report given by you, you are having chest wall microabscess as well as fibroadenosis.
Microabscess can be related to tuberculosis. Fibroadenosis is a benign condition and is common to occur in reproductive age group. You are advised to visit your surgeon for regular follow ups and take the TB medicines regularly.
All the best
