Hi Tjt63
It could be something or nothing, but phoning your surgery tomorrow is a good choice, if you are in the UK you could ring the helpline at breastcancercare.org.uk as well although without a proper examination tests they will also be unlikely to diagnose anything. Ask your doctor for a referral to the breast clinic at your local hospital.

Good luck and hopefully it will not be breast cancer.
