Should i be concerned with redness surrounding one nipple?

Breast skin changes: Please see your primary care physician. Several skin conditions can also affect the breasts, but skin changes of the breasts can also be found in some cases of cancer. If you have a strong family history of breast cancer, it may be wise to have a baseline mammogram done, depending on what your exam reveals.
