Just manually express your milk or you can use breast pump for this. Hot fomentation will help. Keep breast empty of milk.

Don't withheld breast feeding, please continue it and do feed from the affected breast.

There is no rationale in asking you not to feed. If airborne the infection may/or will spread as you obviously handle a baby. Absolutely no need to stop feeding. Keep on feeding and do not deny baby his nutrition. This will relieve pain and baby gets feed as well.
