Hello dear
Understand your concern
Swelling in nipple and huge knot inside breast is not normal. I advice you to consult the gynecologist or general surgeon to find the cause of problem.
Following are the causes:
Fibroadenoma of breast: benign tumor of breast
Breast cancer, breast abscess, lipoma.
Go for following investigations: breast examination, USG scan, fine niddle aspiration biopsy (USG guided).
Treatment will depend on the cause.
Fibroadenoma and cancer should be removed by surgical procedure.
Selective estrogen receptor modulator and antibiotic should be given.
Hope this may help you
