White Cheesy Discharge
About 8 months ago I had pain on my nipple. I squeezed it and I had a white cheesy discharge come out. Like when you pop a cyst. For two days it kept coming out when I squeezed just like a cyst. I had a breast exam and an ultrasound that all came back clear. 4 months later I felt pain again I squeezed and less came out and only that time. I don’t know why I squeezed yesterday and a tiny itty bit came out. The discharge is white, thick, and strongly resembles a cyst or pimple discharge. I am constantly checking for bumps and don’t feel anything. I’m still worried it can be cancer that’s starting on the nipple. It only comes out from one breast, only when squeezed, but not every time it’s squeezed, there a no crust on nipple or anything. I also hd blood exam and that came back back good. What should I’m still worried i

Yeah, you need to go see your doctor. Get the proper exams and tests done. That’s not normal. Keep us posted please

before squeezing next time go to the dr and let them do it so they can send it off for pathology. It sounds like you have a cyst or a pore that gets blocked up with dead skin cells. Very common for it to occur and very common for it to reoccur at the same spot as the pore is having difficulty clearing out the dead skin cells (that’s what all that stuff that comes out is).

There are a number of reasons for what you are experiencing.....and a lot are benign. You really should get it checked out as the others here suggested. It’s worrisome for you, and can’t blame you, it is scary when these things happen! Definitely make an appointment, seeing the doctor will be better than worrying and wondering....let us know how it goes for you please

Hi Had the same experience. already had a total duct removal because they found blood on the histology but it turns out all benign and fibrocystic breast. But it's a year now since the operation and now my left breast starting to hurt again and surprisingly there's a discharge again but now it's a bit brownish. So ... going back to the doctors again next week hopefully they find out what's happening 😊😔😔 . Let me know what's the outcome after your visit . Wish u all the best .
