I've black spots on my nipple that appeared recently, could it be breast cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Common breast cancer doesn't announce itself that way. Pigmetned spots on the nipple are common and if they all look similar without any stand-out suspicious for melanoma, you can simply point them out to your physician on your next visit.
