Hi all. I found this on the bottom of my breast that had just appeared randomly. I went to the doctor who almost fobbed me off and said it didn't feel like anything to her, maybe a scar. I said my boobs have had no trauma to them, no way it could be a scar. She finally gave me an ultrasound. Am I wrong for being concerned about this?

Re: Concerned

Hi @Anna01 ,

You know your body best. If there is anything that is not quite right, follow through with your GP or relevant specialist until you are happy with the answer.

Whether that is your GP, a 2nd opinion from another GP is possible, dermatologist or maybe another health professional. 

It's your body and your life. 

How did you go with the ultrasound?
