pimple/lump by nipple

A couple days ago my right breast started hurting, and I felt a tiny lump to the right of my nipple.  Then a day later I noticed a pimple and I popped it and a lot of stuff came out of it.  No blood came out or anything though.  I was wondering if the lump most likely had something to do with the pimple or if it has something to do with me having inverted nipples.  And also, I've been reading now that you're not supposed to pop the pimples.  Is there anything I can do to get rid of them then?  Anything I can buy or something?  Cuz I've always had these little ones and I don't think wearing loose clothing will make them go away.  I know they're supposed to be there or something but they drive me crazy.  Thanks.

I'm not sure what you mean when you say that pimples are supposed to be there .... the tiny raised areas around the nipple/areola are not pimples.  The skin on the breast is the same as skin anyplace else in the body and is subject to the same problems.  I'm not sure why you shouldn't "pop" a pimple if that's indeed what it is and if pus comes out then it no doubt was a pimple. Inverted nipples are a cause for concern but not if you have had this condition for a long time and if it involves both breasts. You might consider seeing your Dr. is you are having skin problems frequently or even a Dermaologist. If the lump is still present since you "popped" the pimple you might want to have that ck.d out by your Dr. also.     Regards ...
