Well today when I got out the shower, got dressed, it felt sort of like my right boob was bleeding, or something. So I lifted up my bra, (A new one, I don't think it matters,) and it was like, almost swollen looking, purply sorta, white at the tip and it hurt.

And when I got home it hurt so I looked again and it was red again.


So, what is this, going on?

No idea, but it'd probably be a good idea to go see a doctor about it. smile We are not doctor, can't diagnose you with anything, and can't see a medical opinion.

That sounds like a plugged milk duct to me. Basically, what happens is that a milk duct gets plugged and fluid gets caught in there. It builds up until it becomes painful and swollen.

To avoid complications, go see your doctor ASAP. If I'm not mistaken, you just need to take antibiotics for a few days and should be fine. In the mean time, some ice (remember to wrap the ice in cloth. You don't want frost bite or anything) will keep some of the swelling down.

Also, if you are on the pill remember that it doesn't work while taking anti-biotics.

Well, it stopped after a day so I don't know.

I would recommend you get it checked anwyay. A swelling in your breasts can never be too good. And remember, the body is extremely good at acting normally despite problems. So just because it looks back to normal doesn't necessarily mean that it is.

It could be the bra, actually, though it's more likely something else. I got a fabric rash once and ... wow, it's freaky.

Still, see the doctor, tell them what happened, how long it took to go away. Did it relate to your period in anyway? (i.e. was it right before or after - boobs can do weird things before your period). But always the doctor smile
