Brief Answer:
Biopsy of lump

Detailed Answer:
Hi

I have gone through your photo

The lump below your breast does not look good and would advise you to do a biopsy test to rule out malignancy

If biopsy rules out cancer then take antibiotic like ciprofloxacin for 1 week and apply mupirocin crean locally over it
