Hello I have been having the same symptoms and treatments for about 9 months now. Every single. Time it settles it flares again. Longest I've been okay is 3 and a half weeks. I've just quit smoking this week. Hoping it will go away now I've quit. I know it won't. Just want to be smoke free so they will consider surgery. My breast is so scarred from being drained and lanced and cut. I have had enough. I can't work. Some days can't even pick up my kid from school I feel so ill all the time. One of the only things I have found relieves the pain and helps it settle quicker is having a hot water bottle on my breast when it is flared. It seems to help bring out the puss. Wishing you the best of luck with all this Flo
