Re: sore nipple

Dear ko- This sudden painful lump could be an infection, injury, or a cyst. It can be treated conservatively with warm compresses and see if it progresses or if it drains on its own through the nipple. If it does not resolve in one-two weeks, then have your doctor look at it. Hannah Brooks, MD, FACS

Hi I am a 20 y/o never been pregnant and not on birth control. Yesterday morning I woke up with a very sore and painful nipple area. It feels like there is a small lump (a little smaller than a dime) right under my nipple and areola. There is no discoloration, redness or discharge as of yet but it is very painful to move even if nothing is touching the nipple area. Any idea what this could be?
