pus came out of the top

but there's more underneath, and a hard bit, and clear pus coming out of that

it's not painful

it's just a pustule isn't it?

i have just replied on your other thread

an abcess needs treating, you oculd well need antibiotics.

have you been breastfeeding?

pussyabcess · 13/09/2009 12:16

lulu thanks

no breastfeeding

you know what it's like -- lump, pus, "oh god what's this"

but feel reassured by posts

thanks

You need to see your GP asap, I do not know what this is but it would concern me. Please do not let embarrassment put you off visiting the GP.

I am not that embarrassed but i am afraid

That's fully understandable but do go along there anyway.

Could be an infected hair follicle.

Definitely get it seen by the GP as soon as you can.

Oh an abcess on your nipple isn't funny, not at all.

I hope you get it treated and it gets better.
