Im 25 years old and about a month ago I noticed a small indent under my right boob, kind of where the under boob would be I guess. I don't see it when my arms are raised it's only when my arms are down and I push down on my boob when I see it, I don't feel a lump and the rest of my breast looks normal to me. I immediately called my GP and he refused to see me because "I'm only 25" wouldn't refer me to anyone either. So I took matters into my own hands and made an apt with my gyno. A day after my anxiety was through the roof so I decided to go to the hospital and demand an ultrasound. My doctor at the hospital really didn't want to give me one because of my age but I was persistent. He did a breast exam and felt no lumps but prescribed an ultrasound for the indent only no other part of my boob. The next day a different doctor read my results and everything came back normal, he did a breast exam as well and felt no lumps but decided to refer me to the breast cancer clinic to get a full exam done to be safe. A week later I had my gyno apt, same thing he felt no lumps but referred me to have my full breast done by an ultrasound. So basically it'll be 6 weeks from noticing the indentation to getting a full ultrasound by a hospital and almost 3 months for the breast clinic appointment.

Basically has anyone on here noticed an indent when their arms were down and not up? And I'm very nervous :( (also they took my blood and everything came back normal)

    DH girl - I just this minute answered your identical post on another thread.

    Take a look at the 'search' function.

    No problem DHgirl. No apologies needed. This thread is a good place to post. The best thing you can do is stay off GOOGLE. Things you see there are often outdated and certainly scary.

    I'm sure others will chime in. And really, I think you'll d be comforted reading about all the other "indents" over the months or years. Try to distract your mind and don't keep looking & poking. Hope the ULS goes well.

    If I understand correctly, you only see the indent when you push on your breast. Is that right?

    Is that really an indent then? Or is the indent being caused by pushing and misshaping your breast tissue?

    You've seen three doctors who all see and feel nothing, and you've had a clear ultrasound. That all sounds good and I would expect that your next appointment and ultrasound will be fine as well. It sounds as though the doctors are sending you to the breast clinic not because they have any concern but more as a reassurance for you.

    Good luck with your appointment.

    hello thanks for the reply! It’s there when my arms are down without pushing against it but it looks more prominent when it’s being pushed,

    I think you may be right as well, a random indent showing up was just a concern for me so I thought I’d reach out to see if anyone was experiencing the same
