What Causes Swelling In Left Side Of Upper Chest?
I noticed yesterday that my 23 year old daughter, looked like the left side of her upper chest was swollen, but when I touched it, it was a defined knot, lump that was not painful and she hadn't noticed it until I pointed it out. Is the upper part of the chest considered breast tissue?

Hello sir and welcome.
The upper part of the chest should contain only muscle, but I cannot accurately say this without knowing exactly where this swelling was. You could use our premium service and write back to me with pictures of the region or take your daughter to a doctor.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
