Noticed A Reddish Purple Discoloration On The Left Breast

I have had a mamagram in the last 3 months everything was normal. I have had a redish purple discoloration only on my left breast for almost 6 months.It is the side that I always sleep on, when I try to sleep on my back more the coloration is lighter. Can not sleep on the other side because of rotor cuff sugery it becomes sore. I had a bug bite under my arm on the same side as the discoloration. It was lanced open and extracted, than became infected. I now have two more lumps under my arm. Please advise.
