Itchy breast and nipple, pain in breast

Hi guys, I’m stressing so so bad as I’ve had an itchy breast and nipple for around 2 months now. I’m 29 and a mother to a 4 year old girl and I can’t stop thinking the worst. I do have health anxiety so I know I may be overreacting. I have had a feel of my breasts and the problem one does have what I think is a lump but I can’t tell too much as it’s quite deep in the breast. My breasts have always naturally been quite lumpy as well and I’m embarrassed to admit, but I have never really checked my breasts, only just started and felt that lump, so not sure how long it’s actually been there. I have an appointment with my GP on Friday and I really am hoping for the best!! My breast also does have random pains in it as well. 

  • Hi Kitkit,

    You're so right, stressing doesn't help anything, so the best thing to do is to put this to the back of your mind, if you can - I know that this is easier said than done!

    I hope that you manage to have a better weekend than the last and I look forward to hear more when you get your appointment.

    Kind regards,

    Jolamine xx
