Hi, I’m 31 years old and for around six months maybe a bit more, I’ve had this weird, um well I don’t know what to call it really…a mark? On my left breast, sort of underneath it but not right underneath. It was small and blue/purple to start off with and I saw a a dr about 4 months ago and she didn’t really know and just said to keep an eye on it. Now around 4 months later it’s bigger and changed colour now? Like reeddish?

    I am so sorry that you find yourself worrying about this. We are not doctors and it would be irresponsible of us to make any guesses. My suggestion is that you seek a second opinion to determine what is going on. Lastly, please remove the pics as it is prohibited on this site. Take care

    I’m new here, but think you should ask a dermatologist for a biopsy. I had a lumpectomy for ductal carcinoma in 2019, the chemo and radiation. In May I noticed I had a blister ring on my breast and saw 3 doctors, had a mammogram and ultrasound where the radiologist said was clear. It got bigger and started changing colors, but everyone told me it wasn’t in my breast, just on the skin. I saw a dermatologist who did a biopsy. Radiation induced Angiosarcoma, very rare and very aggressive. I’m getting a mastectomy in the next few weeks. It’s really rare, 1 person in a million, but it would have been more advanced if I hadn’t seen the dermatologist. Please get a dermatologist referral to make sure before you lose more time waiting. The oncology surgeon said he’s seen it because it’s his specialty, but most doctors have never seen it.
