A breast abscess is a painful build-up of pus in the breast caused by an infection. It mainly affects women who are breastfeeding.
9: Fever, unspecified.
Chest wall abscess is an uncommon condition occurring spontaneously (primary infection) as a result of hematogenous spread of bacterial, fungal or mycobacterial pathogens from distant sites, or secondary to open trauma or thoracic wall surgery.
Overview. The chest wall is comprised of skin, fat, muscles, and the thoracic skeleton. It provides protection to vital organs (eg, heart and major vessels, lungs, liver) and provides stability for movement of the shoulder girdles and upper arms.
Mastitis with infection may be lactational (puerperal) or nonlactational (e.g., duct ectasia). Noninfectious mastitis includes idiopathic granulomatous inflammation and other inflammatory conditions (e.g., foreign body reaction). A breast abscess is a localized area of infection with a walled-off collection of pus.
Breast abscesses are most often caused by a bacterial infection. Bacteria enter the breast through small cracks or breaks in the skin of the nipple. This usually occurs as a side effect of breastfeeding.
Subareolar abscess is caused by a blockage of the small glands or ducts below the skin of the areola. This blockage leads to infection of the glands. This is an uncommon problem. It affects younger or middle-aged women who are not breastfeeding.
