Sore nipples

Asked by sexicaramel over 2 years ago, 10 answers.

I have really sore nipples. They only hurt when I touch them it's only my nipples, not my breasts. What's wrong with me?

For me that was a sign of pregancy lol. but could also be a sign of ovulation. Every woman is diffrent, but I would talk to your doctor about it.

Thrush
Anytime you get sore or cracked nipples all of a sudden, check for thrush symptoms. Thrush usually causes pain in both sides.

Blockage
Mastitis or a plugged duct or a milk blister is a possibility, particularly if only one breast/nipple or area of the breast is sore. It's unusual to have mastitis, plugged duct, or a milk blister on both sides at once.

Hormonal changes
Are you ovulating or about to get your period? The hormonal changes at these times can cause sore nipples for a few days. Typically, both sides will be sore. nursing. Some women get relief from the soreness by taking evening primrose oil or a calcium/magnesium supplement.

Any chance of pregnancy? Often the first sign of pregnancy for nursing moms is sore nipples. As with soreness that comes with ovulation or menstruation, both sides will typically be sore since the soreness is caused by hormonal changes.

Trauma
Are you prone to getting eczema or psoriasis? Either can cause nipple soreness.

Are you using a new soap, laundry detergent, nipple ointment/cream, skin lotion, shampoo, powder, hair spray, perfume or deodorant? An allergic reaction to any of these might cause sore nipples.

Have you been exposed to poison ivy?

Nipples can get sore around the time of your period, if this isn't the case then see your doctor.

If you are like me you like to have your nipples sucked on or played with. If so, this makes my nipples sore.

I have the same problem. But mine are also itchy. But I'm obviously not pregnant because I'm only 13. But I don't know why I'm getting it.
