What Causes Soreness Of Nipples With A Green Discharge?

I have sore nipples with a green discharge. The nipples are red and swollen. I've had Fibrocystic breasts since my teen years. I have also had a mass removed from my right breast. This has happened a few times and was told it was a cyst in the milk duct. Is it normal to get this so many times?
