Nipple lumps??

Hi- I have a small pea size lump on my nipple currently. It's not painful -, looks like it could be an ingrown hair but I can't see one. DH says it could be a spot? I still breastfeed my toddler in the night if that's relevant.
Would you get this checked out? It really just seems very minor and I'm worried about wasting gps time for a potential ingrown hair.

I would say, if unsure, get it checked out. It's probably nothing but if it is a simple ingrown hair, you don't want it getting infected as that's going to be painful.

Hiya I know this is an old thread but no one has replied to mine, I also BF my 6 month old at night only as now has a bottle in the day, and I noticed a few weeks ago my nipple looked different in the mirror and I've found a very small pea sized lump on the side of the nipple. I'm making an appointment tomorrow but did yours go away after BF?
