6 weeks ago I was diagnosed with Mastitis. My youngest is 4 so I am not breastfeeding. I went through 2 rounds of antibiotics which helped some but did not resolved the large hard mass in my breast. Original ultrasound showed no abscess just very swollen tissue. Last week at follow up I had a rash and "blister" which they discovered was indeed an abscess. They drained it and I'm now on my 3rd round of antibiotics. All the interior swelling is gone but I still have a large "blister" swollen area and red skin patch. Has this happened to anyone? I'm guessing I'm going to need it drained again.
