Asked By:overthem00n in Michigan, ND

I'm 26years old. I have a bump on my actual nipple. I've had it for probably 7-8 years. It was hardly noticable, 1 year ago I had a breast lift and implant exchange. The bump has slowly doubled in size. It doesn't hurt and has never hurt or caused any discomfort. But I don't know what it is. My family doctor has seen it but tells me it's not cancerous. But never any word on what it is or how to get rid of it. Is this something plastic surgery could fix or am I stuck with it? I provided pictures.
