I don't know what to do, or what this is

Hi, I'm 15 and a couple of days ago in the shower I noticed that on my left breast close to the nipple there was a slightly red hard and sore spot, it was a small spot at first and I didn't think to much of it, but now it seems as though the spot is moving around the outside of the nipple and it's slightly warm to the touch. I haven't asked my mom or sisters about this yet, I wanted to first get a little feedback. Please help me, I really am scared it's something like breast cancer.

The first thing I'm going to tell you is to talk this over with your Mom and Sisters. From your description this sounds a lot like some type of infection (being red and warm to the touch) and if so it will only get worse without some treatment. I think first telling you Mom and then a trip to the Dr. for possibly some antibiotics is what you need to do and I'd do it ASAP to get started on some treatment. The earlier you treat, the easier to cure.   Take care now .....
