A lump between the breasts that has persisted for two weeks deserves an in-person examination. Its position, depth and whether it involves the skin or breast tissue matter; the written description alone cannot establish the cause.
Next Steps
Arrange a physician or breast-clinic appointment soon. Note whether it is growing, painful, draining or associated with other breast changes. Avoid squeezing or attempting to drain it yourself.
Health Tips
Seek prompt care if it becomes increasingly red, hot or painful, grows rapidly, or is associated with fever. A persistent lump should be assessed even when it is painless.

This is not a lump, it's a kind of skin disease like accumulation of dirt or any bacteria due to sweating causing infection and changes into pus filled bumps.

Hello, a lump in the middle of the chest between the breasts is usually not breast tissue. It is more often a skin condition such as a cyst, a boil, an ingrown hair or scar tissue, or sometimes irritation of the chest-wall cartilage. I can't confirm the cause from photos alone. Please avoid squeezing, pricking or applying home remedies, as this can cause infection and scarring.
Next Steps
Get it examined in person soon if it is painful, red, warm, discharging pus, growing, or if you have a fever. If it has stayed for more than 2 to 3 weeks, it is also worth having it checked even if it doesn't hurt. A teleconsultation on Practo can help me ask the right questions, review clear photos and tell you whether you need a procedure, ultrasound or just treatment. – Dr Amandeep Aggarwal, Family Physician, Sangrur

Arrange an in-person examination with a GP/dermatologist particularly if it persists beyond another 1–2 weeks. They may recommend an ultrasound if the nature or depth of the lump is unclear. Do not squeeze, puncture, or repeatedly massage it.
Health Tips
Note its size, tenderness, redness, mobility, and whether it changes with your menstrual cycle.

Hi, the lump has to be thoroughly examined
As far as the photo presents it doesn't look like something to be worried of..
I would suggest a detailed clinical examination by a surgeon followed by an ultrasound examination of the breasts
Dont worry
Next Steps
surgery consultation and ultrasound scan

A small bump that has stayed about the same for two weeks, without pain or quick growth, is most often a benign skin issue like a blocked pore, small cyst or ingrown hair sitting on the skin rather than a true lump inside the breast tissue.
Next Steps
Keep the area clean and dry, wear loose cotton clothing, and avoid picking at it. If it keeps growing or changes, please see a gynaecologist for an in-person look.
Health Tips
See a doctor sooner if it turns hard, red and spreading, or starts discharging, since that can mean an infection.
