Can A Bruise On The Breast Be Breast Cancer?

Hi I have noticed a bruise on my left breast this morning.. Now it appears darker..and size of 50pence piece. I don t remember hitting or knocking it. I have been taking 10mg amitripilne and 300mg Zantac for a chronic cough since beg feb 2014. I am worried about breast cancer but read that some drugs thin the blood ? What do u think please doc? .

HI
Well come to HCM
In my opinion just keep an eye on this lesion, this is not the cancer and no need to worry about this, Amitriptyline is antipsychiatric drug and this wont help here, unless you have some anxiety and depression, in my opinion no need to treat this lesion, for your functional problem you can continue the Amitriptyline, hope this help.
