What Causes A Painful Lump On My Breast?
In June I found a lump under my right breast. It was the size of a grain of rice and did not hurt, so I ignored it. On Monday night I bumped my computer against it and it hurt, so I looked at it. It's now the size of a nickel and it hurts. It was hurting just when things touched it on Monday, but today I can't even move without it hurting. There is a pink ring around it and it's hurting so badly that I'm having trouble getting around. The pain is also spreading. Any ideas on what this is?

Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
It looks that the small lump has gone into a stage of fat-necrosis. May be infection too. Please get this investigated , clinically examined and ultrasonography done and if necessary FNAC =fine needle aspiration cytology.
Give breast support- get clinical examination and treatment as per examination .
