Line/ indentation

Posted by danchar2 @danchar2, Aug 12 3:37pm

I have a line that has appeared down my right breast. It looks like an indentation.
I went to see my doctor on monday , she has referred me to the local breast clinic.You can see it more in certain lights abd more when I raise my arm .
I have had a look online and cant seem to find anything that looks like it , so im sure its probably ok. Thats why i have come on here. Can u post pictures on here . Thankyou

Found two similar situations - interestingly they are also on chat boards.
Hope this helps!

When will you be at the breast clinic? Can you fill us in as to what you discover? Wishing you all the best.

Had lumpectomy in left breast. I have a inch dent at 12:30. The cancer was close to surface of breast so skin and tissue was removed. I just ignore it. Shows through clothes but nothing I can do except wear thicker tops. All is good right now...cancer free. Yah!

I had this also but ironically the cancer was found in the other breast. If you notice a change, make sure you get a diagnostic mammo. They don't pick everything on the screening ones. Also push for ultrasound and/or MRI if you're not getting answers or getting dismissed. I was told for nearly a year that I was being "too picky, that breasts aren't supposed to be perfect" when I brought up my concerns. I went back again and pushed for a diagnostic mammo and thats how they found the cancer. Good luck to you.
