Hi,

A lipoma when it gets fibrosed it is called fibroadenoma. It cause pain and sometimes gets infected also. If it is symptomatic then it should be treated. Try some pain killers as far now like paracetamol if it is not subsiding then we need next level of management example surgery. But as far now you need to take an ultrasound breast and diagnose what it is. Depending on it further treatment goes on. It is a treatable lump.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
