If you have a lump/cysty thing on your side along your bra line
Do you make an appointment with your OBGYN or your regular doctor or someone else?
The only reason I am suggesting OBGYN is because they always do a breast exam and this could maybe fall into that category.

that'd be my first bet but i'd set up another appointment with my PCP too.
does it move when you touch it? or is it a fixed lump?

Do you need a referral with your insurance? If not, I'd go right to a breast specialist. That's what I did.

Go to your OB/GYN. If anything, they will be able to direct you from there.

You GYN may send you for a sonogram first to see the images. If it is of concern the next step would prob be to a breast surgeon to see the images as well and determine if you need a biopsy or if it can be looked at via an MRI instead.
If you need the name of a female breast surgeon let me know. I have a fantastic one that i switched to and I adore her!
