Build up of meat/skin on nipple?

Posted by · Leave a Comment 

It’s been many years since it appeared (at least 3 years now), it doesn’t hurt or itch, but it’s just there on my nipple. It’s about a centimeter long in the same colour as my nipple (on my left nipple only), it looks like a build up of meat or skin lumps… I’ve checked with one of my doctors a few years back when I first got it, she said it wasn’t anything that I need to worry about… but at the time, it was still very small (it was just a tiny single lump of skin that’s visible on the nipple)… it’s gotten bigger over the years Read more of this post
