Patient's question:
What should I do if my nipple hurts when it's touched?Doctor's answer:
Medical Analysis: Hello, according to your description, you experience pain whenever your nipple is touched.Advice: A common cause of this condition is inflammation following breast hyperplasia. Remember, everything in the world that can arise naturally can also dissipate naturally. First, maintain a healthy lifestyle and good hygiene. Then, either you or your husband can gently massage your breasts with both hands, moving inward or outward simultaneously. Remember, never squeeze. The massage technique is as follows: use a clockwise motion on the left and a counterclockwise motion on the right. If it hurts when you massage, it means there is a blockage or stagnation in your Qi and blood flow. Gently knead it until it dissipates (avoid excessive force. If the pain point feels uncomfortable, focus on the surrounding area).
After a week, visit a reputable foot massage parlor for a foot massage. I know it works well for menstrual pain or irregular periods, but I’m not sure about the effects on the breasts—just give it a try. There’s nothing to lose.
If the condition is severe at the moment, I recommend consulting a breast surgeon for an examination.
