I totally agree with zouzi and since it's the weekend I would suggest that you have your Mom take you to either the ER or an Urgent Care Facility if there is one in your area. I would NOT wait until next week ... this does sound like an abscess since you say your breast is swollen and red.   Take care ....

Hi there,I think that the first thing you should do is to let your mom know about this problem..and then to have this checked out by your doctor who will tell you what this is.At your young age and because of hormonal changes in your body,the breasts can be affected with lumps and cysts.What you have,could also be an abscess, and if it is, your doctor will prescribe some medication.Until your doctor checks this lump,no one can be sure what this lump really is.Because of your age and because the lump is painful I presume that it has nothing to do with cancer.But please have it checked, so your doctor can do something about the pain by prescribing some medication for you.Good luck and God Bless.
