I'm a bit concerned because about a year ago I started feeling some pain in my breast and I kind of brushed it off. Now I've noticed a lump there and it's kind of painful. I'm really worried about what this might mean. Could you give me some advice on what to do next?

Question

I'm a 27-year-old guy and I've had this lump inside my left chest for over two years now. It's pretty weird because I can feel it when I touch it, and it hurts then, but otherwise, there's no pain. The size hasn't changed, and there aren't any other symptoms. I'm not on any medication, but I'm really worried it might be a tumor. Any idea what this could be?
