I stoppped bf 12 weeks ago as I got a blister which was unbeliveably painful. I was fine until I went for my post natal check and my GP felt a lump. A week later it was painful so she gave me antibiotics. Another week later it was worse, she gave me more antibiotics and referred my to the breast clinic at the local hospital. I went and saw the consultant and had a scan, they said an abscess. I've had it drained 3 times in as many week, which really hurts and each time it fills back up. Is there anything I can do to help relieve the pain and get rid of this as it seems to be dragging on - DD is now 16 weeks. GP said she hadn't seen an abscess for a couple of years and I've never even heard of it, neither has anyone I know
