I have a small,red raised bump on side of breast,it is actually red,elevated skin.It has not changed for several months.It is not a pimple,boil or rash. IT is small.Does it sound like a dermo type problem? I called my gynos' office,have alot of confidence in them,the nurse says it sounds like an age spot or skin tag type thing like she had.Breast cancer does not cause a "red bump" does it? Thank you

Hello, I have been having a similar problem for about 6 months. I have a very small raised red bump right on the edge of my nipple. It is right under the skin. It has not gone away but sometimes the skin around it will swell every once in a while. It is tender and sometimes hurts (but not often). When it does, my nipple is also very tender and sometimes red. I am only 19 and very far away from home (at school). I am not comfortable going to a walk in clinic for this but I am starting to worry because it isn't going away. Might this just be a skin problem or should I go to a clinic right away? Are these symptoms or breast cancer?

Hi starless,
There are glands/ducts located in the nipple and areola. Areas may become clogged/plugged, irritated etc. Any breast changes or abnormalities should be evaluated by a physician to identify if any underlying problems exist. I would encourage you to have an evaluation.
Sincerely,
Theresa Jones, RN

Could something like this be brought on by having recently started on the pill?
