Suggest Cause For Sore And Redness Round The Breast Nipples
I am experiencing a redness around my right breast nipple. It is a little sore when wearing my bra. I m concerned about the possibility of breast cancer although it has not been diagnosed in mother, sister, or earlier. I am scheduled for total knee replacement on the 17th but am not sure I should proceed before determining what this might be.

Hi
I would advise you to do a bilateral mammography test.
Apply soframycin ointnent on the affected area.
If no lesion is found in the mammogram then there is nothing to worry.
But if any lesion is found i would advise you to do a biopsy test to rule out breast cancer.
