Hi all, I would like peace of mind or your personal stories or advice, to help me with my mom’s situation. She is 61.
Now I must say she will be getting a mix of a mammography, CT Scan, and biopsy. I know you could easily say “just wait for the results”, but I still would like to hear you in the meantime.
her symptoms:
red marks on 1 breast
1 breast bigger than other
Darker nipple and around nipple
Skin on breast feels harder (theres no lump though)
No pain. No itchiness. No discharge
The red marks became less noticeable recently. I hope thats a good sign.
These symptoms started months ago when she noticed the red marks. She shouldnt have waited, we know, but now shes in good hands. The red marks are actually less noticable than they used to be, so I hope that’s a good sign.
I hear that most cases that can relate to these symptoms end up being an infection, inflammation or injury. Can you please reassure me somehow, perhaps with your story? Shes 60, shes not breastfeeding, and I hear that Mastitis usually happens in women breastfeeding. However she can recall one day where she lifted heavy things and had pain in her breast from that “workout”, and the marks seem to have started around then. So we are hoping it might be some sort of injury or trauma.
Thanks so much in advance
