hi Suchita Neogi! I can understand it could be very painful for u .it could be a blocked duct with thickened milk and needs to be drained . please consult your gyneac regarding the same . it might also require an antibiotic to heal in case it's infected. tkcare!

Suchita in this case please check if he is latching properly and also with a slight change in positioning of the baby , u may feel better. please consult your doc regarding ice packs or moist heat treatment which can make u feel better and relieve the pain .
