Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
The most probable cause of your condition is wither fibro-adenisis or rarely fat necrosis or underlying costo-chondritis.
In costo-schondritis the pain can be pinpointed on the chest wall and increases on deep pressure, no lump will be found.
On fibroadenosis , the lump can be felt only on pinching and not on palpating by flat of a palm.
I would advise you to undergo mammography, ultrasonography, FNAC if needed.
This will give guideline for futher management.
If the pain is amenable to the usual treatment you can request Doctor to get the area removed and get the histopathology done.
IF the lump is small, it will neither distort the breast nor will there be a pain as the lump will go away.
