Q: Last night an area on my breast approximately 2 inches in size became red and itchy. It was bright red and splotchy. Today the area is shiny and very bright red and oozing a yellow substance. The area is on the side of my breast and I noticed the area above it is all yellow. I figured if it doesn't clear up in a couple of days a trip to the doctor would be in order but I was wondering what this could be.

A: this sounds like and infection. You are right to follow up in a few days if it does not entirely clear up. Even if it does, be sure to have your routine breast examination and mammogram on time if you are due.

I am not 100% convinced about "florid", but will send any other findings to you.

The text could be referring to "florid [ductal] hyperplasia"...

A lack of uniform criteria for the term of "fibrocystic change" for many years created controversies as to the relationship to breast cancer. The original study by Dupont and Page (1985) has demonstrated the importance of precisely classifying and specifying epithelial proliferations into those with and without atypia. Based on the review of more than 10,500 consecutive benign breast biopsies for benign diseases from 3,300 women who were followed for a median period of 17 years, the relative risk of specific changes is summarized as follows:
Proliferative Lesions and their Relative Risks
for Developing Invasive Breast Cancer*
Nonproliferative changes: 70% of cases
Relative Risk = 1.0
 Adenosis
 Cysts and apocrine change
 Ductal ectasia
 Mild epithelial hyperplasia of usual type
Proliferative disease without atypia: 26% of cases
Relative Risk = 1.5-2.0
 Hyperplasia of usual type, moderate or florid
 Papilloma
 Sclerosing adenosis


Perhaps the whole text will give more clues.

agree  Dr Sue Levy (X): no it's not duct hyperplasia but fibrocystic changes - "florid" in this context would mean well-developed/established - see definition in Dorlands

Therefore it seems to be the most severe type
