Hello Anonymous,

Welcome to EmpowHER and thank you for your question.

Is there any redness or swelling of your breasts? Do you have pain only when you touch the nipples? Do you feel a lump in your breast?
Is area around the nipples cracked, itchy or red?

Are you breast feeding? Are you due to start your period in the next week or so?

If the pain persists or worsens, please see your primary care physician.

Regards,
Maryann
