Worried about breasts

I am a regular MN'er but I have changed my name to try and get as many views as possible. I didn't want people who would not usual be on the same threads as me to not look.

Anyway, for about 5-6 weeks now I have had itchy breasts, both in exactly the same place, both sort of underneath but on the outerside. I noticed about 4 weeks ago that I had what looked like a bite on the itchy patchy on my left breast (we were on holiday so thought it may have been a mozzy bite). I tried not to scratch it and leave it to go away. Now in the same place on both breast I have a scar looking mark. They itch so badly I wonder if i'm going to make them bleed sometimes.
I have also had for as long as i can remember a white discharge from my nipples. It seems to build into what would look like milk spots, which i then squeeze to get rid off. AsI said, I have had this as long as I can remember, both before and after having my DD.

I saw an article in a magazin recently which said that itchy breast we a common symptom in the varying types of breast cancer. Now, I know i need to go and get this checked out but first i need both some reassurance and advise if anyone else has experienced this before.
Thanks for listening.

I have no advice really NTGCO but just wanted you to know I had read your post.
Have you made an appointment with your GP?
