What Does Sore Bump Next To Nipple Suggest?

I have a bump next to my left nipple that has been there for about a week now. Last week, I accidentally pinched the area while lying down & it has been sore every since. Some skin around it has peeled. What does this mean??? I m now in a state of panic....

not to worry much as this is a common breast condition of infective nature!

it could be a subareolar abscess or an infected fibrocystic disease of breast

just do an FNAC test for a definitive opinion.

avoid rubbing it; all the best!
