The description that you have given is that of a sebaceous cyst that has ruptured. These cysts can occur anywhere in the skin and are not cancerous. A breast cancer generally does not present like this. However it is best that you show it to a surgeon since he can make the diagnosis just by looking at it. if it is indeed a sebaceous cyst then all it will need is a simple surgical removal.
