Hi.
Normally the hormone dependent lumps regress after the menstruation , which you say has been over a few days back; so does not looks like hormone cycle changes.
This can be a sort of infection in that area which has caused all this.
Please consult a Surgeon to ascertain the cause and decide the management and to rule out any ''serious '' matter; which I not think it is .
So do not worry. This looks to be an infection only and will settle with antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medicines.
IF still persists after 7 days or increases in size , pain , redness, please consult a Surgeon ASAP.
