Bleeding from Nipple... is it a REALLY bad sign?

Bleeding from Nipple... is it a REALLY bad sign?

Hello,

I am 30 yrs old.  I was bleeding from my nipple (not a lot, but enough and pure blood, no other discharge), I have severe pain in my nipple area which wakes me up in the middle of the night, it has become inverted, but with pressure, I pushed it back out to normal, while not all the time, sometimes it itches so bad that there is nothing I can do about it... and POSSIBLE color change around the nipple, not the entire breast.  All on one breast, the other appears to have no problems.

I looked up all my symptoms and it all points to IBC.  Can these signs be for anything else?  I don't have a fever and never had a child and don't appear to have other signs of a breast infection.  Could it be another form of breast cancer?  not as aggressive?  I am not pregnant, just had my period last week.

My doctors believe I have HNPCC and they have already caught precancerous polyps and cells on my uterine lining and colon and have been removed with different procedures.

Good on you for following up. Not sure what a white spot means but sounds like you are getting good care. Take care.
