im 15 and the other day when i came home form being out all night my mum told me how she had been bleeding from her nipples
she got the blood examined and discovered there are no milignant cells. tomorrow she is getting an ultra sound to see if they can find any cancerous cells.

Hi,

I understand your concern and the anxiety that comes with this.

Is your mom taking any medications that may include contraceptive, anti anxiety meds,meds for lowering blood pressure?

Has she had any trauma to the chest recently?

Any itchiness that could have caused her to scratch the area and bleed?

Let us wait for the results of the ultrasound as this will shed some light regarding your mom's condition. Breast cancer is not the only condition that may cause a bloody nipple discharge.

Stay positive. Your mom needs you to be strong for her.

Keep us posted.

hey... i can  understand your mental state... but u have to be more calm n show your mom that nothing is goin to happen... i don't know if it could be cancer or no.. but let her not take any tension as tension will only worsen the case.. my mom has undergone chemotherapy n she has spread in bones... so u relax n let her undergo ultra sound... best of luck...
