What Causes Pain In The Areola Region With Draining Pus?

Hello. A few days ago I felt this pain in my left nipple area. And I went to touch it and it hurt. So I looked at it closer and there was this bunt right under my nipple on my areola. I squeezed it and green pus came out. What would cause this to happen?

Hi,

This condition can be caused by abscess formation inside your breast which can be treated with a course of high dose antibiotics.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
