Question: Recently developed a very small red spot on my left breast beside the nipple on the areola. At first it was just red, sore, and a little bit shiny, I went to my obgyn who said he thought it was yeast and prescribed Nystatin (sp?) cream for me. I used the cream and although the small spot healed in its original place, it ended up spreading to different areas of my areola. Now the skin almost looks like a burn. It is very flaky and peeling, but there is no pain (just a little sensitivity) no build up, or discharge. Since this was just the one nipple, my obgyn referred me to my dermagtologist for a punch biospy to rule out Paget's disease of the breast. I've read that scientists believe paget cells may come to the surface through milk ducts. I have been breastfeeding for 5 months. Still waiting for the results of my biopsy but i'm wondering how likely the chances are that this is Pagets, and if not, what else could it possibly be?
