It is not exactly on the breast surface but below to it means my bra corners is pointing to it. Please let me know what it is exactly or i need to contact a Doctor for it.

Hi there.

It could be lymph node enlargement due to own or breast abscess. Apply warm soaks. Avoid wearing bra that will put pressure on it. Show to your Surgeon for a proper diagnosis and management.
