So i took my nipple piercing out about three weeks ago because they never quite healed and were constantly irritated. I did everything right, I saw my piercer before hand to get the OK and make sure he thought i was alright to take the jewelry out. I soaked them in salt water for a couple days after to make sure and flush out any bacteria or puss in the hole. They closed and i thought everything was fine.

except now my areola is scaly and irritated on the right breast and when i squeeze the area hard enough a clear liquid comes out of textured bumps that are around the nipple. it itches constantly and though i have heard of similar symptoms being connected to a rare form of breast cancer, i am certain this is directly related to my piercings.

PLEASE PLEASE i am very worried. i plan to see a doctor ASAP but if anyone has ever heard of this or experienced it i would desperately like to know!

Do see a doctor as soon as possible.
And STOP squeezing your poor nipples! It’s abnormal that three weeks after you removed the jewlery and stopped soaking with sea salt that you’re having some sort of reaction be it allergic, bacterial or something else.
