It could be a blocked duct or an infection.
Here's some info I had from my breastfeeding days:

I could imagine that a milk duct could act like a pore-- if it became blocked with too much oil or lotion, it could get infected. When I was breastfeeding, I would use a hot compress and massage the lump. It hurt like crazy, but they went away in a few days. I hope it's nothing more serious than that.
