What Causes Pea Sized Bump On The Breast?lu
I have a pea sized bump on my breast that is on the dividing line of my nipple and my regular colored breast skin that has popped up in about an hour, it is squishy and hurts very bad to the touch. I am no breast feeding, but I did pump breast milk when my 3 year old was born. Could this just be acne or is it something I should have examined?

Hi,
It seems that there might be having some bacterial infection like boil or soreness in areola giving this problem.
Clean the part with warm water and apply antibiotic cream.
If it does not heal, go for one antibiotic medicine course like Amoxiciln for 3-5 days.
Ok and take care.
