What Causes Sore Breast Knot In A Teenager?

My daughter is 14 yrs.old. She came home from school today and has a small knot in her left breast. She said it is sore. She is having her monthly cycle right now. She is also on birth control pills to help regulate her cycle. She is not sexually active. What could this be? Should I take her to the Doctor?
