A member asked:

My right breast when pressed leaked blood i had a baby 10weeks ago not breastfeeding. should i be concerned?

Be seen: Bloody nipple discharge should always be checked. See your GYN and if necessary a general surgeon. They will want to check the drainage, possibly order a breast ultrasound, maybe even a mammogram. Good luck.

Usually this: is due to a benign intraductal papilloma, but not always. Please see your doctor for an evaluation.
