Small scab on areola

Small scab on areola

A few days ago I noticed that my right nipple was a little sore and that there appeared to be a pimple-like thing like right on the line between my nipple and areola.  Two days after that the pimple-like thing turned into a scab that was a little painful if I brushed it on accident or anything like that.  Some fluid also came out when part of the scab came off.  It appears to be healing each day but is this something I should be worried about?

Hi,
The first thing I would like to suggest to you is make an appointment with either a breast specialist or a dermatologist who will visually evaluate this scab and find the proper solution to heal it.Anything abnormal in or on the breast should never be ignored.Please have it checked out for your own peace of mind.
Best wishes.
