If the ultrasound: demonstrates a simple cyst, it is of no concern with respect to breast cancer. But If it bothers you, it can be aspirated.

Clear single duct nipple discharge on expression.. only a drop or two at a time, not very much. Is this likely breast cancer???

Occasional shooting pain in left breast which began 4 years ago. Previous two mammos and ultrasounds were clear, except cysts. In Nov '19, started having intermittent bloody discharge from left nipple and now feeling a harder lump. I'm 49.

Clear sticky discharge from one nipple only when expressed/compressed though. It comes out of only one duct from nipple. Is it breast cancer/very concerning? Its only about 1-2 drops each time. Everything online says DCIS. Breast exam found no lumps?
