Breast specialist: A lump in the breast, even during breast feeding should be examined and looked at by a professional.

Check with OB: I would recommend that you see your ob. It may be a cyst ( a small fluid filled lump). It may be a clogged duct. It could be breast cancer. Best to see your md. You may need mammogram and possibly breast ultrasound to help rule out serious problems. Dont wait. See your md when you find a lump. Better safe than sorry.

Have it looked at: This could be breast feeding related or a real issue.If you noticed it is new then it is time to have it evaluated by your doc.
