Common Questions and Answers about Green discharge breast

discharge

Avatar n tn I have had a dark green to light green discharge from both breasts when squeezed for many years. I asked a Dr about it years ago. He told me to stop playing with myself. I was furious! Later, I had breast cancer (not related, I think) and after surgery had a pocket of a copious amount of dark green fluid in my surgical breast. Doctors did not seem to know what it was. Eventually, a slide as done and it turned out to be a protein (not infection).
Avatar m tn I went to my doctor for pain in my left breast, with a green/black discharge. She ran a culture on the discharge, and after 48 hours, it grew 2 different "STAFF" infections. She is sending me to an infectious disease doctor due to the staff. Please have your doctor check your culture of the green/black discharge to see if this is what is happening. I will post again after the 28th of April, when I go to the new doctor.
Avatar n tn and unusual discharge can sometimes be a sign of a malignancy in the breast. Is there anyway you could have your mammogram sooner? Does the doctor know that the discharge is now green? the change in colour can indicate infection but these are worrisome symptoms and i think the sooner it is checked out the better...
Avatar m tn i posted a question a few days ago, and yesterday i noticed that what used to be light green discharge, randomly turned into straight black discharge. its only in one nipple, and some times ill even have green discharge as well.
Avatar n tn dark green discharge coming from both breast when squeezed This discussion is related to <a href='http://www.medhelp.org/posts/show/258369'>green sticky discharge</a>.
Avatar m tn Hi there. Well, the yellow/green is concerning and that coloring is often associated with an infection of some sort. I would see your doctor. Sorry about your abnormal mammogram. I've had one of those as well and it is quite scary. Get this checked out but would suspect it is some type of milk duct infection.
Avatar f tn Last June I had a left breast duct removal because they had finally taken a sample of the breast discharge(white and green) and found atypical cells. Going in they thought they would find a papilloma. They never found anything and the tissue came back benign. Now a year later white discharge is coming out of my right breast and it's painful. They tested it and there are atypical cells. I don't understand why I had atypical cells in both discharge samples form both breasts.
Avatar f tn What should be done? Can the thyroid issues be connected to dark green breast discharge (10/29/12 Culture tested Many Positive Cocci, No PMNs Seen, 4+ Mixed skin flora). Had breast mammo and breast ultrasound, no findings found. Had complete hysterectomy 2008. Please help!
1461017 tn?1285812782 Some pituitary tumors cause excess prolactin secretion that can lead to milky nipple discharge, usually from both breasts (bilateral). Opalescent discharge that is yellow or green in color is normal. Most bloody or watery (serous) nipple discharge (approximately 90%) is due to a benign condition such as papilloma or infection. A papilloma is a non-cancerous, wart-like tumor with a branching or stalk that has grown inside the breast duct.
Avatar f tn My daughter is having breast discharge. enough to wet her shirt. She had a baby a year ago, I haved had breast cancer... Should we be worried?
Avatar n tn I have had a green discharge from both nipples when squezzed and I went to one gyno. He said that it was just my birth control and that if I change to a different type it would stop. It didn't. I went to a different doctor and he said that with my mother and grandmother having fibrosystic disease of the breast that it must be that. Now my little sister (age 15) has the same problem. Is there anyway to make it stop??? This discussion is related to <a href='http://www.medhelp.
Avatar f tn I had a green discharge from one duct on my right breast. Had my prolactin level checked (came back normal), a mammogram, ultrasound and a galactogram of the duct. Radiologist said there were 3 cysts not to worry and the discharge may never go away. It has been 4 months and I still have the discharge but now have a constant stabbing/stinging pain (like a hot needle poked into my nipple) with stinging radiating through the entire breast and into my armpit).
Avatar f tn Hi, Nipple discharge is normal and very common when the breasts are squeezed and it's rarely a sign of breast cancer.It can come in a variety of colors - gray, green and brown as well as white. Take care to avoid nipple stimulation( including frequent checks for discharge) because it can actually make the discharge persist.If you stop squeezing the nipple,most probably the discharge will also stop.
Avatar f tn hm, that's odd, right? Green crust. And it's been there so long. I'd guess it is hormones with your daughter causing "physiological nipple discharge". This can be various colors including green. MOST of the time, that nipple discharge will turn out to be normal. One thing that can cause it in a young girl is ezcema on the nipple. https://www.bci.org.au/breast-cancer-information/fact-sheets/nipple-discharge/ I'd have her see her doctor though.
Avatar f tn i was told i had fibrocystic breast disease and was sent for a ductogram and the dr. seen the green discharge last march and sent me away without doing a thing, like i said now its a black color, i have also been on estradoil since 2008 because i had a full hysterectomy.my now dr, says its dangerous to be on this estrogen and i need to wean off of it, i see my gyno the 25th of this month, he also just sent me in for blood tests for pregnancy and lactate amounts in my blood..
Avatar f tn Both of my breast have dark green discharge when you press not leaking. I am 30/f and breast fed 3+ years ago. Moderate pain.
Avatar f tn You need to get to the doctor, not normal to have discharge of any kind much less green. If you are pregnant then discharge is normal but still not green. Nothing to mess with. Go to ur doc and ask to get a mamo.
Avatar f tn The discharge can come in a variety of colors - gray, green and brown as well as white. Some women are more prone to more discharge including women on; birth control pills, certain blood pressure medications or on major tranquilizers. These medications increase prolactin levels in the body. There is also certain life periods when a person is more likely to get discharge than others: there may be more discharge at puberty and at menopause than the years in-between.
Avatar f tn While bloody discharge is never normal, colored discharge might mean amongst many noncancerous conditions- pregnancy,duct ectasias, fibrocystic disease(especially if there is lump), and Galactorrhea(relating to medicines and hormones). So many of the conditions as you well can see are not serious, yet it is required that you consult your doc right away and get an ultrasound and mammogram, as required. Best wishes.
Avatar f tn im also having white discharge,and sore breast and having slight cramps in back and lower stomach.
Avatar n tn I have had an ultrasound on my right breast for a lump. The doc is baffled and wants to wait six weeks to see if it get's larger or smaller, however a green discharge has been coming out of the breast. Enough to where I had to put a pantyliner in my bra to soak it up. It is very painful to touch also. Should I wait the 6 weeks or get second opinion? Also discharge has slowed down to minimum.
Avatar f tn However, because a small percentage of nipple discharges can indicate breast/nipple cancer, any persistent discharge from the nipple(s) should be evaluated by a physician. Up to 20% of women may experience spontaneous milky, opalescent, or clear fluid nipple discharge. During breast self-exam, fluid may normally be expressed from the breasts of 50% to 60% of Caucasian (White) and African-American women and 40% of Asian-American women.
