Hello,

I believe that the skin in your breast is infected and the white-yellow secretions is pus. You should disinfect it will alcohol and betadine and probably you should take antibiotics orally. The piercing may have been a cause for infection.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
