Hi.
Thanks for your query.

This is the necessity of an early proper diagnosis and surgical treatment whenever is needed.

Now you are suffering from the secondary infection of the cyst with its attendant complications as the areola is a very sensitive skin.

Get a course of an antibiotic and anti-inflammatory medicines. If required, go for surgical debridement and regular dressings.
