welcome to Health care magic.
1.It would have been helpful if you have given Age / investigations / duration.
2.If its hard and with evidence of outgrowth more looks like cancerous/infectious aetiology.
3. Depending on age investigations include Mamogram (x-ray Breast) then A sonomammo ( ultrasound breast) if the mess appears suspicious then go for an FNAC ( Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy ) would help in conclusion.
Hope it helps you.
Anything to ask ? do not hesitate. Thank you.
Sorry ! you have ask for treatment i missed in first look.
generally the way you are describing the symptoms and investigations - depending on the lump size, and adjacent organ involvement, and lymph nodal involvement.
Procedures include - lumpectomy to complete mastectomy with removal of lymph nodes.
