A member asked:
I have an enlarged montgomery gland on one breast near the outer edge of the areola. there is no infection, no discharge, pregnancy or breastfeeding?

No Prob: This is a variation of normal. Montgomery glands are as simple as sebaceous cysts. Nothing needs to be done. Observe for now. Watch for redness, heat, pain, swelling, or drainage.
