What Causes Pus Filled Bumps On Areola?
My daughter is 11 years old and she has notice a discharge coming out of the bumps on her areola but only when she squeezes it and it s light green with a blackish or grayish tint to it for the past 2 weeks. Is it something to worry about or is it her hormones as her body changes?

welcome to hcm,
some of the greenish coloured discharge is usually normal and nothing to worry about but any way i advice to see a gynacologist to examine the presence of blood (microscopic) in the secreation. bloody discharges are to be worried about. increased prolactin hormones and inflamation in the breast (mastitis) can cause this aslo it is advisable not to squeeze. hope it finds helpful
