I’m a 21 year old woman, I noticed a white mark near my left nipple and the whole boob has been aching (kind of feels like when I went through puberty) that boob was always been bigger than the other. I have no discharge I don’t think but I think I can feel a very small lump under my nipple but again I’m not sure. 
I noticed the white makes (almost like stretch marks) on Thursday and then Friday the pain started to develop. I’m only hoping if it is cancer that I’ve caught it early. 

i’m incredibly scared. I called 111 and they said a clinician will call me at some point and I’m still waiting on their call. I really don’t want it to be cancer. I keep having anxiety spurts, for a bit I’ll cry but then I’ll convince myself I’m okay. 

my friend said today that there’s no point in worrying because it might be nothing and I know there’s no point in worrying but that doesn’t stop me from worrying seeing as I have severe anxiety and have done since I was 5. 

please if you have been through a similar experience or are going through a similar experience let me know. It’ll put my mind at ease, even if you have been diagnosed, it helps to know someone is there.
