What is this on my breast? Pic included*

[OuchOuchOuched]

Ive only just noticed it this morning, it doesn't hurt and isn't red... I'll book a doctors appointment but was wondering if anyone had anything similar? It does look a bit flaky as well.

It looks like a bite? Mosquito or flea?

We don't have any pets, and I doubt a mosquito... could it be another sort of bite?

Ingrown hair.

It looks red on the photo?

Deffo looks like a bite, but could be anything really. Id use a warm compress and if it's a bite and there's anything in there it will draw it out. Also maybe put a dab of antiseptic,? See if it helps?

Thank you everyone. I mean to type it isn't sure but is red* x

Update today...

Anyone had anything similar?

I’d be straight to the Drs.

Google Breast abcess and look at some images?
Hope you’re ok x

It’s a boil. Put some magnesium sulphate paste on it, or cotton wool dipped in very hot water to bring it to a head. You can then pop it like a spot. But make sure you clean it afterwards.

@Aydel just sent DH to the chemist now to get some!

My money would be on a mossie bite. Nowhere is exempt from mosquitos. But most people on MN are not trained medics and I would get it checked out.

@StarlightLady I think I'll give the doctors a call tomorrow, although I tried to get through regarding something else yesterday and all appointments were gone by 8.40

I used to get these a lot - it's a boil. Magnesium paste or Sudocrem will draw it out.

Are you diabetic? I've stopped getting them since my blood sugars are better managed.

Put something warm on it with some kitchen towel in between, if it's a cyst/boil this will draw the pus out.

My money is still on the ingrown hair.

Could be an abscess and if so GP will likely refer you same/next day to get it drained at the breastcare dept at hospital. Had this recently and they were brilliant.

It’s a boil, it will likely pop on its own.

I’d pop that with a clean sewing needle!
