A member asked:
Yesterday, i have seen black dots, it looks like blackheads on my areola. is it normal? should i get them off? if yes, how?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not removable: This is a skin finding related to the glands within the areola around the nipple. It is not associated with a problem, but it worth having your ob/gyn do a skin exam of the area and make recommendations on skin care. This is not something that can be removed.
