Suggest Treatment For Swelling In The Right Breast
Hello, Most probably it will be an abscess which is nothing but a collection of pus. Consult a general surgeon and plan for an ultrasound. Once the diagnosis of the abscess has confirmed, the treatment is drainage of pus under local anesthesia. An antibiotic cover is also required. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Regards, Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
