What Causes Hard Spot Under Nipple With History Of Ductal Breast Cancer?

I had a lump and and it turned out to be ductal breast cancer. I had a double masectomy 2 years ago and just found a hard round quarter size spot under one of my nipples. Should I be concerned or could it just be something with my muscle or the bag from the implants?
