Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having fungal infection or having some allergy or friction of bra you wear.
And now due to itching there might be having some infection producing pus discharge.
Clean local part with warm water and apply triple action cream rather than applying only cortizone cream.
If infection is more you might require one course of antibiotic medicine for 3-5 days.
Ok and take care.
