Large red spot on breast

5 replies

I am entirely aware that if this spot was anywhere else on my body I wouldn't be alarmed at all.

It's on the underside of my breast, about an inch below my areola. It's a red area around 1cm in diameter that appeared suddenly 3 days ago. On the first day when I squeezed it, white pus came out of the pore, and it's less raised since then but the diameter of redness is about the same. The pore is not central, there's two pores encompassed by the red area. One looks clogged.

It's slightly swollen and I can feel and move around a small lump just underneath the skin.

Again, if this was on my ass or my face I would not be worried, but it's on my breast. My head tells me that it's just a spot and will disappear, but when should I be worried? I have no other changes on my breasts and while I'm not prone to acne, I do get spots occasionally on my face and elsewhere on my body.

You are probably right and it will most likely be gone by monday. Be wise to get it checked if only to put your mind at rest. Try and leave it alone if you can

I had basically this only without the pis.Went to the doc about it today and they said cyst,so yours probably is too.Get it checked all the same but try not to worry.

I get these too they normally go in a few days , if it doesn't just get it checked for peace of mind

Thanks for the reassurance. If it hasn't gone in a few days I'll get on to the doctors, and in the mean time no more prodding and squeezing!
