What causes the nipple to secrete a light yellow substance?

Patient's question:

It started hurting in April, and there was a lump inside, hard. I went to the hospital for a check-up, and they said it was chronic mastitis. In late May, my breast was swollen and red, with pus inside, so I had surgery and they placed a drain. In early June, there was also some discharge. The doctor said it might be pregnancy, but now the child has been terminated, why is there still discharge?

Doctor's answer:

Guidance: Hello, mastitis is a common disease during lactation, often caused by milk stasis, nipple cracks, and infection. It is recommended to use traditional Chinese medicine treatment. Pay attention not to eat spicy and irritating foods.
Inquiry: How long have you been experiencing this condition?
The occurrence of nipple inversion not only affects a woman's life but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo an ultrasound examination in the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. In daily life, you should drink more water and pay attention to personal hygiene.
