Hello! I may have put this in the wrong place but hopefully someone can give me some advice?
To give some background - I am not close to my mother and therefore I can't ask her, and I am a bit embarrassed to ask my MIL, (I know, I know, if it's that embarrassing how can I ask strangers right?!)
ahem
So. I'm 27 years old, and I've only recently started to check my breasts on a regular basis. So to be perfectly honest, I have no idea what is normal and what is not. But I have noticed that my breast has been really painful over a couple of weeks, also it seems to have changed shape around the nipple. I'm trying to avoid Google because it usually makes me more paranoid than anything else... I also tried to make an appointment with my GP but I was told that - "If it's a lady problem, you will have to see the lady doctor." (This by the 'head' GP who is male, and spoke to me on the phone...)
The main issue is, I am freaking out, but I don't know if I should be concerned or not! Plus, the lady doctor is on annual leave at the moment so I don't know how I can get help from the doctor.
Sorry this is so long! Thanks for sticking with me!
