id go to the doctor and have them check it out. A bruise is sometimes a sign that there is something wrong especially when there is a knot under it

Do keep an watchful eye on the bruise. If it has not gone down or it feels different in a couple of weeks contact your doctor. I wear underwires and when the wire comes out it goes immediately in the trash.

Should your bruise or "lump" have no feeling in it contact your doctor. I am not trying to scare you just be aware of your body and how it works. This way if there is anything going on in your body you have a chance to catch or contain it in an area that save your life.

This is coming from a breast cancer survivor of 14 years.

Good luck to you.

Most of the plastics in the underwires are manufactured in China and can have numerous problems if they are directly on your skin. (Remember the flipflops making the feet break out.)Try some high grade tea tree oil on it. It's an antibacterial, antifungal, and it absorbs deep into the skin so it can heal from deep within. Then throw the bra away!

The knot is probably a small hematoma (collection of blood under the skin, like a deep bruise). Use cold compresses, and if it's still there in a couple weeks, see your doctor.

Dont panic, first of all try not to use a regular bra for now, try wear an all cotton sports bra, no matter what size it will hold you firm, you can get them at target or walmart. Keep the area clean, maybe use peroxide. For the brusing use hot and cold compress or rags. Wait it out a few days. It is more than likley caused from what you said it was. DO NOT panic unless it is still there in week. It is start turning yellow and starts to itich then it is healing. You know your body better than anyone else. Dont forget to get your yearly mamogram. Take care.

I got cellulitis from having a ball hit me in the breast. At first it was a bruise and bump...and I waited until it felt like something more then a bruise...and it exploded in my body. I was in the hospital on serious IV meds for 2 WEEKS. My immune system was so depleted I got pneumonia really bad after that. I'm not trying to freak you out, of course. It could be nothing, too. But, I a, proof that's it not worth waiting to find out!!!
