For about a month now my right nipple has
been very itchy and painful. In the last
couple of weeks it has gradually gotten
worse with the whole area surrounding the
nipple becoming red and swollen. I also
have a clear discharge from the nipple.
It is extremely uncomfortable and although
I haven't felt any lumps in my breast
could it be cancer? I am 24 years old
and my sister in law who is the same age
is currently undergoing treatment for
breast cancer which is probably why i'm so
worried!
In any case it is very uncomfortable
especially during the day when i'm wearing
a bra as the discharge causes the material
to stick. I want to go to a doctor but I
have just moved to france for a few months
and I haven't got one yet.
Could anyone offer any advice? It would
be greatly appreciated.
