What Causes Small Lumps Above Nipple?

Hi.Im 39yrs old - male. Just felt what I thought was a spot or blocked pore approx. 2-3cm above my nipple. Took shirt off to have a look and found no redness or symptoms of a spot. Turns out to be two very small hard lumps (about the size of a small M&M) and spaced about 5cm apart. Previously had one similar lump on opposite side & got it checked by a consultant - turned out to be nothing. Still - no guarantee that this is nothing either, so should I be concerned? Thanks.
