Spot on breast should I be worried?

Noticed this spot today on my breast. It isn’t painful and is about 2/3cm total with redness. When pricked only blood came out. Should i be worried about this?

No idea what it is but given the location I'd check it it with a doctor just to be on the safe side.

Draw a line round the red but with a sharpie or similar, if it's spreading you might need antibiotics.

Is it warmer than the rest of your skin?

Wash it with salt water and hold the warm wash cloth on it for about 5 mins. Cover it with Sudocrem or Savlon or similar and see what it looks like it the morning. GP of worse. Personally I think it looks like a spot you've picked but I'm not a medic.

Ouch that looks sore! Drawing a line round is a good shout. Get it seen to as soon as you can in case it spreads.

It isn’t painful or hot to touch, I will keep an eye on it over the weekend and see a GP if it’s still there incase it is anything sinister/to be worried about, Thankyou everyone:)

I once had an ingrown hair on my breast that looked like this. It was infected. I'd get it checked in case you need antibiotics

Hi, sorry to jump on post I can't seem to start a new post 😔
I have a mark/spot on breast. Been there about 4 days. Will ring gp if don't go. Does anyone have an idea what could be.
