Does Lumps On Aerola Of Nipple With Puss Causes Chest Infection And Sore Throat?

I am 24 and have two children, I have been getting lumps on my areola and nipples for quite some time that when squeezed white or yellowish stuff comes out, they will fill up with puss until I squeeze it out, I have tried to leave them and they dont go away. I also get dark black pubic like hair on my areola which I have been plucking as it s very embarrassing. Alot of these hairs grow back ingrown. I did have a fibroademona when 17, and have been getting chest infections, sore throats, tonsillitis at least once a month for the past year, should I be worried?

Hi,
Repeated bumps with pus on nipple can not cause chest infection/sore throat. It is an infection of hair roots in skin of areola of nipple .
While chest infection/sore throat are air borne infections.
* You should get investigated & examined by a physician to get a proper treatment for your sore throat/chest infection.
* For hairs on areola ,please visit an endocrinologist-hormonal imbalance can cause it. treatment for basic cause, A careful removal of hairs with boiled plucker & aseptic precaution are & a course of antibiotics will help.
Thanks.
