Suggest Treatment For Purple Scar And Lump In Between Breasts
I have a quite big purple scar in between my breasts. My breasts are quite big and when I was younger I strapped them with a bandage dressing and a bra on top, this started when I was about 13. After a few months a lump came up with a small hole in it in between my breasts which would pop every now and then and release puss and occasionally blood. I didn t do much about it apart from cleaning and plastering it. Last year I went to the sea a lot and the hole never opened again. However now I am left with a big purple scar in between my breasts and a bit of a lump towards one side. I do not know what to do but I want to get rid of it asap (also I am going on holiday and will probably wear bikinis which does not flatter me at the moment) I am 15 right now.
Hello and welcome to HCM, First of all before managing the purple colored mark in between breasts, it is important to manage any lump in the breast. If any lump is palpable, you need to consult your primary healthcare provider for clinical assessment, aspiration cytology of the lesion followed by appropriate management. The purple colored mark in between breasts can be manged by laser treatment. Laser is effective in removal of scars, discolorations etc on skin after regular cycles.
Thanks and take care Dr Shailja Puri
