What Causes Yellow Drainage From The Areola Of Breast?
I am a 22 year old female. The areola of my right breast is leaking with a discharge that dries off into yellow crusts. The nipple doesn t leak. The parts of the areola that leak have darkened and become dry and feel rough to touch. Also, there is intermittent pain in that part. This has been going on for ten days and is present only in one (right) of my breasts. i have tried applying antiseptic cream on the area but it hasn t helped much. today i found a bit of blood there too.. It s is winter where I live and my skin has gotten itchy too. And this itchiness in present in the right areola and nipple too. My left breast doesn t itch. Please tell me what is wrong and how can this be cured.
