Lump Formation In Breast

Question

Asked for Female, 26 Years

There seems to be a lump formation in one of my breasts just beneath the nipple, it has grown in size over the past month. Due to this my breast including the nipple has become sensitive and hurts a bit at times. Could this be a symptom of breast cancer? I've been meaning to consult a doctor, however, I'm not sure which specialist I should consult to get a proper diagnosis.
