What Is The Large Red And Painful Pimple On My Areola?
I m a 24 yr old woman with a very large red pimple like lump on my left areola very close to the nipple. It s very sore and swollen and it appears to have happened overnight. I actually squeezed it as soon as saw it to relieve some of the pressure however I m not sure that was the right thing to do. Should I go see a doctor or is this common?
HI Well come to HCM Chances of infective carbuncle is very likely, this is not common but some time happens, initially this can be managed with anti-inflammatory drug only and the lesion comes around with this only and the best option is Tab Ibuprofen 400 mg three times is day, in very rare condition antibiotic required, if the symptom does not improved then clinical examination is must, hope this helps.
