I have been BF DD2 for over 11 months now and the only pain I ever had was some grazing of the nipple when she was a newborn due to attachment - since then it has been going well.

Yesterday however, I noticed a pain in my right breast. It is in a really weird spot so i can't work out what it is and how to fix it It is a sharp pain, just beneath my nipple - not the nipple itself. So if you squeeze just below your nipple, like pulling it up and feeling a bit deeper into the fleshy bit it's just there.

The nipple is fine, the rest of my breast is fine - it's just this small area. Can it be a duct there? Is that too close to the nipple? Could I have a blockage or could it be something else?

I've been trying to get her to feed from that side first to drain it fully in case it is blocked but I don't know what else to do. HELP!
