Indentation? Cancer? Help!

I have noticed a small indentation in the skin my ‘good boob’. It is in the areola part of my breast. When I feel it there’s an empty space underneath like a small canyon/ridge that I can press my finger into. The surrounding tissue is very solid and lumpy (been told I have ‘cysty’ breasts. Does this sound sinister? Has anyone else had these symptoms?

Hello a_j_

While you are waiting for replies maybe you could give our free helpline a ring on 0808 800 6000 and have a confidential chat with one of the breast care nurses who are there to support you, lines are open to Monday to Friday 9.00 – 5.00 and Saturday 10.00 – 2.00.

Thank you June. I did telephone your helpline. They recommended I contacted my BCN who promptly made me an appt to get it looked at.
