pain around nipple

pain around nipple

I am 61 years old and have been suffering from an unrelenting pain around the nipple of one breast. It started around 9 months ago, stopped for a while and returned a month ago.
I am generally healthy and have had surgery on this breast after the birth of my fisrt child 43 years ago when engorgement caused my  milk to become infected and full of puss.
Thanking you in advance,
M. Assayag

This could certainly be related to some problem with the milk ducts and I would advise you to see your Dr. for a clinical breast exam and any other tests that may be necessary. At any rate you need to do something about this pain ...... and probably should have several months ago. Please make an appointment soon and have this ck.d out; doing nothing may only complicate the situation.    Regards .....
