A member asked:
Breast looks slightly indented on the side. could it be fibrous changes? i'm 38. and i have large breast
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Any new changes in look or feel can be concerning. Puckering of the skin or lumps should be followed closely, and possibly imaged. Fibrous changes are more often felt than seen. I suggest frequent exams to notice any changes over time.
