Glad to know that you got an appointment for next week.
A breast dimple can be caused by several kind of lumps,including a cyst.
It occurs because something inside the breast is pulling the tissue inwards causing the dimple.
Hoping that the scan will clarify things for you.
All the best...

Hi,
It's hard to say what this lump could be.Many women have these kind of lumps under the breast,almost on the rib cage beside the sternum.
Some have been diagnosed with a benign lump called a lipoma,which is a form of soft tissue tumor,others with muscle inflammation,abscess,cyst etc.
I am not saying that the lump you have,is one of them, but it's a possibility.
I am sure the scan will let you and your doctor know exactly what's going on.
Take care and best wishes...
