What Is Painful, Itching, Peeling And Oozing Lump In The Breast?

I am a 3o year old woman I am 5'2'' and weigh 165 lbs. I have a lump in the top of my breast on the nipple I had ultrasound, mammogram, and looked at by a breast specialist they did not seem too concerned. It has always been painful but recently started itching and peeling in the spot the lump is located. I have been very tired and my body has ached . This morning i work up and had wet spot on my shirt and it was leaking pink tinged pus what should I do.

Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having some local skin infection like dermatitis and due to itching there might be having secondary bacterial infection.
Clean the part with plane water and apply triple action cream.
If there is more infection, go for one antibiotic medicine course like Amoxicilin for 5 days.
Ok and take care.
