A member asked:

Im an 18 year old female my boyfriend did a hickey on my left breast and it left a mark and it itches and i'm really scared what could it be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hickey most likely: Hickies are due to broken capillaries from the suction. Depending upon your body healing chemistry they can last for several days to up to two weeks. Itching is usually a sign of healing. As long as the skin was not broken, you should be safe.
