I have been diagnosed with cellulitis of the breast, I first noticed in 2012. I've had surgery, it came back the next week. Help

What can I do to get rid of this? I've noticed swelling after stressful situations and before cycles. It's right by my left nipple and the pus sometimes leaks from my nipple. The swelling is so bad sometimes I can feel it growing. They have been recurring almost every month since 2015 but the first one was in 2012.
