Hi,
Any discharge from nipple at this age and having history of breast cancer, you require evaluation of your case.
This might be simple abscess formation but any other pathology should be ruled out.
You might require through breast examination manually and Mammography as well.
consult gynaec and get examined.
Ok and take care.
