I Am 20 Years Old And I Am Getting Boils On My Left Breast Causing Pain And Itchy Nipple
i keep getting boils on my leaft breast and have been having horrible pain about a year ago I had a little bump on my left breast about a month or two ago it got to the size of a blueberry, my boyfriend and I tried popping it but it was just too painful. Three days later it started leaking, that lasted two days. Now I am getting another boil it seems and it is pussing and its gross. My left breast has been in pain for a while and hurts and the nipple gets very itchy. I am 20 years old and I just dont want to worry anymore.

Welcome to HCM.
It will gratually increase by pushing because of spreading of infection in soft tissue.
Don't push it more.If it is leaking than go for dressing .Certain antibiotic course is required for complete healing otherwise there will be recurrence.
Consult surgeon for better line of management.
