worried about spot on breast (photos)

Hi mods please don't delete just because there are photos of a breast I am concerned.

I have got a small white spot on my breast which is sore when I touch it. There aren't any lumps underneath. I phoned NHS direct earlier and they said it sounded ok (as in not cancer) but they couldn't actually see the spot so weren't sure and i should go to a GP. I have booked in for thursday as i have exams all week and i just dont have time before then. I am pretty sure its not cancer but i just wanted to see if i could find out what it is on the internet but i couldnt find anything other than mums moaning about milky nipples when i searched for 'white spot on breast'. :frown:

does this look familiar to anyone is it just like a regular whitehead? :s-smilie:
My god!

Edit: See GP immediately

Just looks like an inflamation or spot/zit to me. If you're that unsure, go see a GP. Better safe than sorry

It's most probably not cancer, and your breasts are nice.
Breast cancer lumps are normally (if not always? I'm not sure) internal, that could be a spot or a boil? Best to ask a GP to be honest, we aren't very qualified - I wouldn't worry though bless you, I very much doubt it is cancer especially at your age :smile: The white 'head' suggests it is some sort of spot, does it hurt/feel sore etc? EDIT: Just read you mentioned that, sorry - that definitely sounds like a spot then.

Go to a doctor to put your mind at rest, but I can almost say with 100% certainty that isn't cancer.

EDIT: Oh and, now you've had a few answers, delete the pics hun, you can get banned. And you'll attract the unwanted attention of some of the seedier TSR users :p:

I give this thread 5 minutes.

You should not take medical advice from this forum. Nothing urgent will happen before Thursday.

I wouldn't be too concerned, OP, but go see your GP.

And delete those pics immediately - you can get banned for them.

This.

Go and see a GP just for piece of mind, but I've had something similar to that before and it was nothing. It will go away soon enough, it's just a little uncomfortable.
