[|AI|]  Welcome to Chat Doctor. 1. History suggests the possibility of the bony lesion - as consistency described by you as hard. 2. In this case I would recommend getting an ultrasound scan done. That will help to rule out that the lesion from breast.3. At the same time will evaluate the nature of the lump, its source and extensions with blood supply.4. A chest X-ray will help to evaluate weather involved the bone - if yes nature of its margins and periosteal reaction (to differentiate benign from malignant) 5. An FNAC - fine needle aspiration cytology will help to assess the nature of the cells involved. Further treatment or action depends on the findings. Good luck. Hope I have answered your query,anything to ask ? Do not hesitate to ask.http://doctor.ChatDoctor .com/doctors/ Chat Doctor.
