Because the discharge is unilateral and persisted for months, you should see your doctor again.

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?

This AM I found what looks like dried blood near my left nipple on my shirt. No trace of blood on my actual nipple but visited my dr & got an u/s of both breasts. Physical exam showed no discharge or lumps or pain. I just think cancer. What else?
