What Could Cause Oil Leak From The Breast When Not Pregnant?

My wife, 34 year old caucasian, is having a lot of oil leak from her breast. It seems like it is coming from the top and bottom of her right breast only, and it is NOT coming out of her nipple. It was enough oil to soak up a bra. It just started today and has not ever seen this before. She has no lumps or bumps. She is not on birth control or any medications. She is not pregnant. She is not breast-feeding. What could be the cause of this?

Hi dear thanks for writing to HCM!!
any discharge from the beast is highly suggestive of any infection or inflammation..so I advice a clinical examination and mammography scan..you can use hot water shake, do proper washing of your breast with savlon, do not scratch the area and tab. amoxicillin for the infection. hope this will help you.
Thanks and regards
