I've recently noticed a small lump under my areola on my right breast, right next to the nipple. It's kind of like a hard ball and doesn't hurt when I touch it, but I can move it around a bit. I'm feeling under the weather with a cold right now. Could it be related, or should I be worried about something more serious?

I've been experiencing some upper chest pain for a few days now. At first, I thought it was breast pain, but now it feels like the pain is more spread out around the area of my breast. I recently started wearing a wired bra about a week ago, and the pain began around the same time. Even though I've stopped wearing that bra, the pain hasn't gone away. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?
