What Could Small Lump Above Nipple Discharging Clear, Brownish Liquid Indicate?

My daughter has a small lump/nodule above her nipple and it discharges a clear/brownish liquid (not thick). It is not painful to the touch, it is not reddened. We were camping last weekend. Small amount of discharge she squeezed out yesterday and tonight.

Hi, thanks for using HCM.

Any lump in breast needs further evaluation, get her to your doctor for physical examination.
One possible cause ,if she is in her puberty age group, is breast development and effect of female hormone changes. which is normal physiological changes in a girl, not to worry. But need to get examined.
