    Mark on breast, worried about IBC

    Last night I noticed a reddish/brown mark under one of my nipples, maybe about an inch or less long. As far as I know, it wasn't there yesterday morning. It's still there this morning though. Looks a little like a bruise. I googled (lol) and am anxious about IBC.. Online it says if it doesn't go away get checked but it also says IBC is quick and could change in days, so should I try and get an appointment today? Or should I give it more days and see if it fades?

    I would watch and see to be honest.

    Ok, so no appointment today, and if anything changes (gets bigger or any other change) I should get an appointment then?

    Well I would give things at least a week - but that is just me.

    You have to decide how urgent you think this is.
