Spot on Nipple

Hi, I''m 19 years old and have recently noticed a 'spot' on my nipple. It is the same colour as the nipple and has grown attached to the bottom of the nipple.

I was concerned as to what this could be. I already have one inverted nipple and know that this can be a sign of something sinister, however, I have been to the doctor about it. But, I'm sure you can understand my concern.

(the 'spot' is on the 'normal' nipple not the inverted nipple)

I was wondering if you could give me some advice on what it is.


Thank-you
A

Sorry, I thought you meant you had been about this latest issue. It wouldn't hurt to have your Dr. check it out but I doubt it is related to the inverted nipple. It seems a bit strange to have come up all of a sudden like you say .... it might be similar to a skin tag but I think you should have the Dr. look at it when it's convenient.   Take care ....

I had been to the Doctor about my inverted nipple, summer of last year, and she had said not to worry about. But it was literally last night that I noticed the 'spot' on my other nipple. I hadn't noticed it that morning when I was getting out of the shower, so I think it occured during the day.

I was just wondering what it was, and/or if it was related to my inverted nipple. If it was normal or not. It has grown attached to my nipple and makes my nipple look like a comma ',' (if I was to describe it).

Since you say you have been to your Dr. regarding this problem I don't think I can give you any additional information. You don't state what the Dr.s opinion was or what he/she may have advised. I would advise you to follow whatever recommendation was made by your Dr. as something of this nature deserves a "hands on" examination.  Regards ....
