What Does A Painful Pimple On The Nipple Indicate?
Hi Please I have this pimple-like swelling on my right nipple, it is inflamed, reddish, very painful on touch. This is actually the third time I am experiencing this, the first time it occurred it lasted about a week and disappeared on it s own, the second time I met a gynecologist who gave me Augmentin and diclofenac, it released a pus and disappeared after some days, now is the third time on that same spot and it has lasted for 7 days now, it s very painful and no sign of disappearing, please what can I do. Thanks
