I'm feeling anxious about a hard lump I've noticed in the upper left area of my chest, close to my left breast. It feels almost like a bone or something solid just beneath the skin. Whenever I touch it, I'm reminded of how hard it is, and it's got me pretty worried. Could it be something serious? What might be causing this?

View allI'm really worried about my mom. She was diagnosed with breast cancer back in October 2013 and had her right breast removed, then went through chemo and radiation until July 2014. Recently, she's been fine except for some coughing with phlegm in the mornings. We just did a full-body PET CT scan, and it shows these small nodules in her lungs. She had an early stage of TB in 2015 and had her gall bladder removed in 2016 because of stomach pain. I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed and would love some guidance on what steps we should take next. Can you help point us in the right direction?
Pulmonologist opinion is advised to the patient.
