Could be mastitis ... you need to see a doctor. Meanwhile you could phone the NHS helpline.

the nhs number is 0845 4647

hope they can help you xx

Does sound like an abcess. See doc in the morning. You probably need antibiotics.

does sound rather like mastitus - go to your gp in the monring and get it checked out, because you may need ABs, and the earlier the better. Don't fret too much and try a nice hot bath tp relieve the pain.
