Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
What problems you are describing appears to be infection and abscess of the nipples.
It needs to be drained properly by surgery by means of incision and drainage under aseptic conditions. Also you need to take a course of appropriate antibiotics and analgesic medications to get cured completely.
Kindly consult Surgeon in this regard for appropriate evaluation and management.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
