    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.
