Is It Normal To Have Brown Discharge With Sour Smell From Breast?
I have noticed for several months that my breasts seem to have a sour smell. I thought it was my lotion and I switched which seemed to make it a little better. This morning though I noticed my right breast had a small amount of brown discharge from it and it was sour smelling. I did not force or squeeze to make it come out. It was just there. Is this normal?

Hello,
Brown discharge from nipple with bad smell is NOT normal. Underlying causes could be infection, growth or malignancy.
One mammography scan, clinical examination and biopsy may be required to confirm the diagnosis.
Maintain personal hygiene. Kindly, consult with your doctor. Good luck.
