I'm a bit confused about my TSH test resultsit came back at 60, which I know is higher than the normal range of 0.55. I have some symptoms of hypothyroidism, but I'm not sure if they match up with my height, which is 174cm, and my weight is 75kg. Everything else in my tests came back normal. Is this possible? What should I do next?

I've got this hard lump behind my right nipple, and when I squeezed it, this yellow pus-like stuff came out, and now the lump seems smaller. It's weird because it only seemed to be on my right side, but I tried squeezing my left nipple too, and some liquid came out, which kinda hurt. I'm just wondering if this is normal or if there's something I should be worried about?
