What Causes A Lump Noticed On The Breast With Clear Fluid Discharge?
I m nineteen and probably a week ago noticed a small bump on my areola, I didn t think much of it until my Aunt had to get a biopsy on a lump in her breast. About two days ago the lump started oozing out a clear liquid, it only does that now if I put pressure on it. But now the lump is a great deal smaller than it was when I originally had found it. A little nervous about this thing!

hi. I think i have understood your worry.
This swelling on the areola could be a secretory oil gland if it is not painful and reduces in size, you need not worry about it.
And if it oozes from nipple it can be dilatation of milk gland duct dialtation and causing clear secretion.
If it continues to grow or turns painful or secretion changes its color please re approach me.
Thanks.
