    I'm sorry to hear that you have some concerns about your breast. Given your Mum's history it's understandable that you're feeling worried about things.

    Given that this has been an ongoing problem for sometime and hasn't improved I'd suggest giving your GP surgery a call and asking to speak to someone. Explain that your Mum has had breast cancer and that you are concerned. 
    Hopefully the GP or nurse at the surgery will be able to give you some reassurance or arrange to see you if necessary.
