I have an 8-month-old baby with a very good overall condition, but he has one swollen and red breast with a lump inside. It seems like it doesn't bother him. What should we do?

It is common for babies to have swollen red breasts with a lump inside due to hormonal fluctuations. This usually resolves on its own without any need for intervention. It is important not to touch it. If the lump is still present at the next check-up, you should discuss it with your doctor.
