What Could Be The Lump On Breast For Couple Of Years?

I have a small hard lump in between my breasts. It started out as what I believe is an ingrown hair. It is located right where I would clasp my front closing bra. I had used warm compresses until I was able to drain it but when it healed I was left with this lump. I have had it for a couple of years now. It doesn't hurt but I am wondering what it could be and if there is anything that can be done to make it go away. I do have a Hx of acne and no Hx of breast cancer in my family. I am 37, female, 5'5" and 160 lbs.
