Answers:
The probability is that this is some sort of skin irritation - could be the cream, could be an insect bite, could be an allergic reaction, could be lots of things!. It could be breast cancer but I have never heard of it presenting that way and some 18 year olds may have gotten breast cancer but it is very, very rare!.

18 year old women are not routinely examined for BC!. Mammograms start at 40 unless there is a strong family history or other reason for concern!. You should learn how to do breast self-exams but for the present more to learn about the texture of your breasts than to look for cancers!.

The best website for breast cancer is www!.breastcancer!.org, it has a lot of good information!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It probably is some skin reaction, and it may not even be to the cream!. Do go in for a breast exam, though, because it is so much better to be safe than sorry!. It is so much better to know for sure that you are OK than to just think that you're probably OK!. It would be rare for an 18 year old to get cancer, but not impossible!. They do breast exams routinely at that age for a reason!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It COULD be breast cancer!. It's probably not!.

Women at 18 DO get breast cancer!. It's rare but it happens!. There are over 40,000 women in the US under the age of 40 living with BC right now!. 11,000 will be diagnosed this year!

Watch it for one month!. If it changes in shape, color, starts to hurt, if your nipple inverts or your breast starts to look like an orange peel, get thee to a doctor RIGHT away!. If you get discharge from your nipple, same thing!. !. !.

It could be a bug bite, a zit or anything!. !. !. Www@Answer-Health@Com

it sounds like its just maybe a skin reaction or something but i know how it feels to be worried im 18 too and i had a lump and i freaked out!. but dont worry, go to a doctor and ask it's probably nothing!. if u have no record of breast cancer in your mom or sister or grama or anyone too then dont worry!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

that is not breast cancer , its probably a skin irritation!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

it doesn't sound like cancer at all!. Don't worry about it!. Just have a dermatologist look at it!. I'm sure it's nothing!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
