Sores on does udder

I have a heavy milking doe that has just freshen and she has developed boils
or you may say hard sores on her udder between her teats? She has never had
any bumps or sores anywhere else on her body.

Like little pus spots? Could be staph dermatitis.

OR if it's lumps that sometimes leak milk, it could be weeping teats, which is a bit of udder tissue that's misplaced and producing.

I'd spray with chlorhexadine.
