Pea sized lump

Pea sized lump

I have had a mastectomy and am having skin irritation.  I think I may be alergic (allergic) to my prosthesis.  However in this irritation I have found a pea sized growth that resembles a mole.  Is this something I should worry about?  I had only chemo and am presently taking tamoxifen.  There was previous radiation therapy to the chest for Hodgkins 20 yrs. prior to the discovery of breast cancer.

Dear Webangel, It's difficult to say without actually seeing the growth if there is something to be concerned about. I would bring it to the attention of your surgeon who can take a look at it and evaluate whether further action needs to be taken.
