What Causes Severe Headache And A Lump On The Sternum?
Hi, I was not feeling well last night, just had a baby 3 weeks ago. My chest is hurting, I found a lump on my sternum between my breast, closer to the right side. I was breast pumping for my baby, but my milk dried up. Not sure what this is, or if I should contact my doctor. I have also been having terrible headaches along with the pain in my chest. Any suggestions.

Dont worry...be calm..mostly this lump and the dring up of your breast milk has no relation..but still you should visit a surgeon once...& get needle biopsy of that lump done..to have a diagnosis..& visit your gynecologist for milk related issues
