Breast cyst or I think what is this

    No being a medical person, I actually have no idea, and it could well be a cyst. Not to be scary, but it also looks similar to some skin rupture that I had from a tumor pushing through. Again, that is not necessarily what you have at all! Please go get it checked out, because it could be a lot of things. I waited because I was scared, and it only made things worse for me. I also had had a benign fibroadenoma when I was a teenager, and then when I got troubles in my 60's it was in the exact same spot as the original benign fibroadenoma, so I thought it was that same old spot acting up again, and most likely not malignant. Well, I was wrong, wrong, wrong, and it was a malignant tumor that started in that old, old benign spot. Please go get it checked out by a medical professional. Fingers crossed for you that this is no big deal!

    Can you please remove the photo ? This is not allowed on bco. We are not medical professionals and it would be very irresponsible for us to guess. Please see your doctor.

    Kwitze,

    Not knowing what something is can be very stressful. This is a wonderful support forum but we are not medical experts, we have/had breast cancer, but this is not the place to have images or test results interpreted. Going to the doctor is never fun but an exam from a doctor will give you answers or need for further testing, whereas any advice or interpretation of symptoms by untrained breast cancer patients will not. We understand that this is worrisome but no one here can nor should be making guesses about medical conditions when we have no expertise. Take care, call the doctor!
