HI

Thanks for posting your query .

Lump in your breast could be due to either blood clot or a tumor .

Is it tender to touch or not ?

Looking at your age , first thing that has to be done is to check whether are we dealing with Breast tumor or not .

So kindly consult your doctor soon . They will do certain tests like Mammography and FNAC to know what exactly the lump .

Hope you find my answer useful.
Any clarifications feel free to ask .

Regards.
