Hi,
Most bloody discharge is due to a benign condition such as papilloma or infection.  Papilloma usually causes discharge from a single breast duct.It's a non-cancerous, wart-like tumor that frequently involves the large milk ducts near the nipple. Of the benign conditions that cause suspicious nipple discharge, approximately half is due to papilloma and the other half is a mixture of benign conditions such as fibrocystic conditions or duct ectasia.
Please tell your sister to make an appointment with her Doctor for a clinical breast exam to achieve an accurate diagnosis.
I hope that your sister will be just fine.
Best wishes to both of you.
