I can't help but wonder if nipple stimulation is causing the nipple discharge. Certainly, monthly self-exam and professional exam once or twice a year are sound measures, If no lump was found by either examiner, this reassuring. If trust is an issue, get a second opinion. If symptoms persist, a mammogram may be warranted.

This AM I found what looks like dried blood near my left nipple on my shirt. No trace of blood on my actual nipple but visited my dr & got an u/s of both breasts. Physical exam showed no discharge or lumps or pain. I just think cancer. What else?

Clear sticky discharge from one nipple only when expressed/compressed though. It comes out of only one duct from nipple. Is it breast cancer/very concerning? Its only about 1-2 drops each time. Everything online says DCIS. Breast exam found no lumps?
