What Causes Greenish Discharge From Breast Post Chemotherapy Indicate?
I have had a lumpectomy from my right breast , T2N1M0 type CA . Adeno Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the breast. I have also had 8 Chemo sessions-just finished the last session on the 5th June . Radiation will start next week . There is now a greenish dischargte from my right nipple sometimes . Do you think it could be a recurrence so soon ?
Thanks

It might not be recurrence...
It could be a post operative collection or seroma which has got infected.
Sometimes such minor infections flare up after chemotherapy and can be treated easily.
Do consult the operated surgeon before commencement of radiation
thank you
