A member asked:

Red bump on right breast above nipple. hurts to press on it and been there for 4 days. other breast doesn't have anything on it. and no discharge.

Infection likely: Sounds like it may be a infection of the skin, like a boil or pimple "gone bad". I would see an MD and put neosporin on it until you are seen.
