I'm fearing it might be mastitis or worse cancer. She is almost 3 (in November) and the terrible folks that had her before me used her twice already for breeding... despite her heart murmur and severely luxated patella.

She is just getting over being in heat otherwise I would've had her spayed by now. I know her teat was not like this yesterday because I groomed her and inspected her whole body. I feel so bad for her.
Get some cabbage. Put it in the frig and let it get cold. Then take an old sock, put the cabbage on her and then the sock over it. Believe me, it works. I used it with Ellie when she couldn't nurse her babies any more. It also works for humans. That should help until you can get her to the vet tomorrow.
