General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello!

Thank you for the query.

Such lump can be a breast lump or benign skin lesion. As it is close to the breast, should be treated as possible breast cancer. That is why I suggest you to have proper diagnostics. Brest ultrasound should be done and biopsy of this lump considered. If it has no contact with the breast, should be removed as a regular skin lesion. General surgeon should be able to do that.

Hope this will help.
Regards.
