What Causes A Pea Sized Lump Above The Right Breast?
I have had a small lump size of a pea for years just above my right breast. I had it checked for cancer but the dr said he thinks it s a apsis or fatty tissue he said I could of had it cut away, but at the time it wasn t giving me any troub E so I said no. This would of been nearly a year now. But the past week it s grown very large and very red and painful.

Hello,
If it is red and painful means, it is infected. Better start antibiotics and anti inflammatory drugs. As soon the inflammation subsides go to your doctor and remove it. Otherwise, it will recur.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
