Another discoloured nipple question

Answered 4 years ago

Oh wow, that black spot on the nipple question freaked me out. I get a darker brown spot on my areola (darker than the other parts). And sometimes it itches.
I know it's probably nothing. And I know I should see a doctor.
But has anyone else experienced this? I'm freaked out thinking I'm about to start lactating black milk now 😨

I had one nipple completely change colour. No itching or any other typical breast cancer signs. My GP still immediately had me do a mammogram & ultrasound be because EVERY breast change should be investigated, no matter how small.

It's all clear, but I was a mess for the week it took to get it tested!!

See. A. Doctor. Now. This is something that needs to be taken really seriously. Although blunt, the other response is right - it may be cancer. Or it may be nothing. The only way to know is to face the fear and see a doctor.
