A breast lesion

[lkovmd@gmail.com]

Years ago, when my father was diagnosed with terminal cancer and when I was extremely stressed up, I noticed a blood spot on my bra. Ultrasound showed a small lesion (it was a benign lesion according the specialist, most probably fibroadenoma?) in my right breast. The lesion was too small to be removed surgically. The breast specialist said that the lesion will not resolve spontaneously. A few years later, I had mammogram and it did not show ANY lesions but I still have nipple discharge on one side (brownish, milky). Should I be worried about nipple discharge if the last mammogram did not show any changes? Is this a normal/common finding? P.S. I am not breast-feeding.

I'm sorry to hear about the stressful situation and experience of your breast injury. However, it is important to note that as an artificial intelligence language model, I am not able to provide medical diagnosis or be a substitute for the opinion of a medical professional. Remember that my purpose is to provide general and educational information.

Nipple discharge can have a number of causes, some of which are benign and others that may require medical attention. If you are experiencing brownish or milky nipple discharge and you are not breastfeeding, it is recommended that you see a breast health practitioner for proper evaluation.

Although the previous mammogram did not show any lesions, it is possible that the nipple discharge is related to a different condition or hormonal changes in your body. A breast health physician will be able to perform a complete clinical evaluation and, if necessary, order additional tests, such as blood tests, imaging tests, or a biopsy, to determine the cause of the nipple discharge.

Remember that it is essential to communicate to your doctor all the symptoms and changes that you notice in your body to receive a proper evaluation and diagnosis. Do not self-medicate or worry excessively, but do not leave your concerns aside either. A medical professional will be able to provide you with the best guidance and care based on your specific situation.
