Hello,

Go for chest X-ray PA and also sputum gram staining and bacterial culture and sensitivity.

May be you have nipple abscess or anything else after x-ray you have to go for ultrasound guided FNAC of that lump.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Chandra Shekhar
