Hi, AmyLei, and thank you so much for your question.
I am assuming this affects both your nipples equally? It sounds like it does, rather than being primarily on one side. And how long has this been like this? Is it pretty recent, or longtime? (If it's recent, think back -- has anything changed recently? Do you sleep on your stomach more? You're exercising longer or with more intensity?)
Do you exercise or run? Do you have a poorly fitting bra or do you go without? A bra that is too small or that creates friction on your nipples can be a cause of pain.
No discharges from your nipples, is that correct?
And it's just the nipples, not the underlying tissue?
If you'll answer these questions, we'll get your question to one of our experts. Perhaps they'll be able to shed some light on what's going on.
