Tiny scab on my left breast should I worry?

2013-06-18 12:37 pm

There was a tiny red scab on my lower left breast. I didn't notice it and I scratched it (bad I know) and I felt it come off. It doesn't sting or burn. I have no idea how I could've gotten it, other than being too rough while drying off, but wouldn't it be bigger? Should I worry? How can I help it heal? Thanks

No, you shouldn't worry at all. Put neosporin on it. It will heal quickly.

You should be fine, you probably moved your hand away to quickly while shaving and nicked your skin without knowing. Put some neosporin on it and a bandaid and it will most likely go away in a week or less depending on the size of it :) no worries there. Now if I see clearish liquid and a yellow (alll yellow not brown!) scab forming n there are "bubbles" forming on your skin filled with clear liquid (will happen over the corse of weeks) you have a staff infection. Most likely impetigo. I had it before n it isn't to hard to deal with. Just go to ur doctor n if he thinks you have it he will prescribe you a cream or antibiotics. Mupirocin Ointment USP is a common cream for such cases. Then again you probably just nicked yourself so u don't have anything to worry about. :)
