Breast abscess: It sounds like you have a breast abscess related to breast feeding. The milk ducts can get clogged which causes an infection. It can be treated with antibiotics and continuing to pump the milk. A drainage of the abscess may be needed with a needle or small incision. A breast or general surgeon can help.
