Suggest Treatment For Painful Bump On Nipple

hello, about 4 days ago I noticed a bump right beside my nipple and it is really painful, I kept breastfeeding but stopped due to the unbearable pain. It has a white head on it and I managed to squeeze it a bit and some puss came out. It feels like there is a hard lump behind it though and I m not sure what it is, could someone help me please
