View allI've had an abscess in my right breast for about three years now, and I've noticed something that's been worrying me. My right breast seems bigger than the left, and I've also lost sensation in the nipple. I'm wondering if this is due to the abscess or if there could be something else causing it?
Surgeon opinion is advised to the patient.

My friend has a pilonidal cyst and initially tried allopathic meds thinking it was just a boil but the pain didn't go away. Now he's doing ayurvedic treatments like medicated water seatings and some medicines which have helped with the pain but he's unsure if he should go for ayurvedic surgery or if homeopathy could work too. What would you recommend for long-term relief?
A pilonidal cyst is usually treated in your health care provider's office. After numbing the area, your health care provider makes a small cut to drain the cysts. If the cyst returns, you may need surgery.
