Bleeding warts in nipple and breast infection

I'm being seen by the clinic on Monday so I doubt the GP will see me before hand. I have inverted nipples. On my left breast I have an active infection and an abscess. In the right one I have bleeding warts (I originally thought they were blisters).

Obviously nothing is life threatening, but would it worth going to out of hours / A&E?

Are you receiving treatment for the abscess - anti biotics or anything ? Do you have a raised temperature?
I went to a and e with an abscess (in my groin) and they drained it for me. If you feel unwell and can't see the doctor pretty soon ( ie before monday) then I would go.

Abscess needs seeing asap so yes a&e is suitable before it goes septic.

I was given antibiotics a week ago. I never developed a fever, but I have a cherry size hard abscess under mi nipple. It's been there from the start and when the GP saw me.
