Welcome to Chat Doctor .1. Possible cause could be ductal Eurasia (dilated ducts) as it increased after having baby.2. Other possible the lesion has grown in the size.3. If you are my patient I would have examined first and then send you for an ultrasound breast, to evaluate the nature of the lump (cystic, solid, mixed), source (duct, breast tissue, fat) and its extensions (chest wall, vessels, ducts).4. Depending on the findings - FNAC might be needed (fine needle aspiration cytology)5. Depending on FNAC findings operative or not will be decided. Good luck. Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health. Anything to ask ? Do not hesitate. Thank you.
