What Does A Painful Lump Under The Right Breast Indicate?

Hi there for about a year now I keep getting a really bad pain under my right breast. At first it happened every couple of months but now it’s happening every week.
It first happened in the bath, getting up, then at the gym now it can be for anything, turning or stretching.
It’s under my right breast towards the middle. It feels like something is popping out of my chest and I have to push it back in. It last for about 5 mins and after the whole of my chest, back and neck are sore for a few days.
My chest is red and I have a lump for an hour or so.
Do you have any idea what this could be?

Hello,

A most possible reason for a painful lump under breast indicates an infection in the pre-existing sebaceous cyst or another soft tissue lesion. Needs clinical examination and confirmation of the same.
