Pain in the right side of the breast

I'm 21 years old, I just finished my period like a week or so ago. I've noticed that my right breast pains when I'm pressing on it. The pain can be pinpointed and it feels as if a part of the breast itself hurts. The upper outer part. I don't really feel a lump but then again I'm not quite sure because I'm not sure how a breast lump is supposed to feel like. So what this could be? I don't suffer from any other symptom. It's just the pain that's bothering me.

Thank you! Do you think chest xray could help?

could you have done something to work that muscle out?  Once I had one sided breast pain and was worried about my heart.  I figured it out . . .  I was playing with our dog, tug of war with one arm and it affected that muscle.  Crazy.  Anyway, it could be something like that.  If it continues, then it is best to see your ob/gyn to be examined.  good luck
