Strange red lump

[mobohemian]

Hello girlies :) i just needed somewhere to turn really. When i woke up this morning i noticed a red lump on my left breast. Its not raised on the skin but when i touch it i can feel a kind of ball shaped lump, just bigger than a pea i'd say. on the surface it's just smaller than the size of a 2p. one side of it is kind of blue looking,and the majority of it is red. its located to the left of my nipple. not directly on it, but about a cm away.
before i jump to conclusions i just wanted to check someones opinion. I'm 19 years old and i've literally just started the combined pill about a week ago. I showed my dad but he had no idea what it was and told me to keep an eye on it, and my mums gonna have a look when she comes home.
My nan has had breast cancer twice so obviously i'm abit worried.
I wouldn't say its particularly sore, i had no idea it was there until i saw it, but now that i know its there im aware of the feeling of it being there, like without touching it, im aware of it there. but that might be psychological. there is also a hair on my boob there and i did think maybe it was just an ingrown hair but i've had that before and obviously that doesnt make you have a lump on the inside.
anyway im rambling but im just trying to explain the whole situation. if anyone could get back to me asap i'd be really thankful. :) thanks alot.

well my mom cancer was diagnosed like this she felt a lump in her breast n ignored it n then that lump keeps on growing after almost 8 months she consulted with doctor n at that time cancer was in her 3rd stage and she died after 3 years of struggle with cancer n her age was only 38 years at the time when she died. it always better to discuss it with ur doctor

What you describe doesn't sound like anything related to breast cancer but more like some type of infection. An infected hair follicle is always a possibility. You might think about seeing your family Dr. who could offer an opinion and some type of treatment to resolve this problem. I congratulate you for talking to your parents about this; so many young women seen reluctant to discuss such issues. You are a very smart young woman ..... Regards ....
