black fluid from left breast

I am a 44 year old female.  I have notice black liquid from my left breast. my mother had her left breast removed because of cancer.  I have had a mamogram (mammogram) and the results were good.  No one has told me why I have black liquid from my breast.  Can you give me an answer?

Breast discharge can be almost any color or consistancy and usually isn't a cause for concern.  I think you would be wise to have this evaluated by your personal Physician or a Breast Specialist. This could involve a problem wih the mlk ducts and may need further investigation.   Regards ...

I had the same thing called the doctor and they referred me to a breast specialist, my fluid tested positive for blood and they did a mammogram and ultrasound all was ok but doctor did do a major duct excision for a precaution he said just awaiting the results of biopsy. I really don't know anything more than that, sorry.

You should definately get it checked
