Does Tenderness On Nipples And Bumps On Areolas Indicate Breast Cancer?

I am 46. Had a hysterectomy 7 years ago for fibroids that were bleeding me to death. Pregnant twice, both times tubal, both times ruptured ( not fun ) I am 5 8 around 160-165 lbs. No chronic health issues except had a peptic ulcer a few years ago & take Tagamet everyday. Take Benadryl during allergy season. I noticed some bumpy looking things around my areolas and when I pressed on my nipples, green oozy stuff came out. No odor just green. Scaring the pants off of me. Nipples are a little tender but no breast pain. No history of breast cancer on either side of the family. Yes, I smoke. Yes, it s bad for me. Now, the green nipple ooze ... Help !?!

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello
I share your concern and that ks a lot for derailed medical history
Looking at your history this could be breast cancer or allergy/inflammation of ducts and areola

I would like to know whether you can feel any lump or swelling within th breast
is it in both the breasts or in one side only

History of smoking with tubal pregnancy and your age makes it high probability for a breast cancer
In my opinion you should consult a general surgeon for check up and a battery of investigations like mammography and USG breast
to confirm/rule out the both the conditions

You should quit smoking now
Have good balanced food with multivitamin supplements
Maintain good hygiene

I hope you will find my response relevant to your query
Thanks for using our services
Best wishes
