Does Lump On Breast Indicate Breast Cancer?

Hello, I recently fell in the shower and hurt my left breast (under my left breast, around my areola, and cuts) and it bruised pretty badly. It took about 3-4 weeks to heal. I recently checked to see if the bruise was gone and was checking my breast and there is a big lump where one of the bigger bruises were, it hurts when I squeeze it. I am concerned that it may be breast cancer.

Do not worry about cancer.
Consult Gynaec and get examined.
Go for mammography.
