A member asked:
I found a black dot on my boob near my nipple it looks similar to a bruise but has been there for about two weeks. what could it be ?

It may need an exam: This short of time for something to appear on the skin is usually caused from the outside (trauma, scratched, etc). I would wait another 2 weeks. If there is still no change, then i would have it checked out by a dermatologist.
