Black brown spot on nipple

15 Replies

For about a year now every now and then after a shower drying myself when i rubbed the towel over my nipple it felt like it was getting ripped off but could never see anything.

Last night it happened again so looked again all i could see was a black brownish dot like a small skin tag,

so i picked it off no pain no blood nothing and it was really hard like a dry scab and was wondering if anyone els had this before or what it could of been.

I can’t comment as to what it could be Johnny but you should contact your GP. They might want a photo of whatever you removed and can take things from there.

Wishing you well. Xxxx

I was going to save it but messed about with it and then got rid of it and no pics, so not sure doctor can do anything now.

GPs have special little eyeglass things for looking at the area. Go to doc asap

Don't worry. It may be something very simple. A trip to your GP is definitely best, though. xx Moy

Hi Johnny. I had same but it itched like mad. Went to doc's who insisted I went to hospital for check. They had a good look at it with an eye glass, also had mamogrham. Was checked out really well. In the end they said they thought it was a bit of dry skin & to moisturizer it well. I still have the spot & it still itches but it fades at times.
