Nipples are sensitive, and they can hurt for lots of reasons. For women, sensitive nipples are common during periods, pregnancy, and breastfeeding.
Seek professional care if you experience any of the following symptoms
Sensitive nipples
A condition in which abnormal hormone levels cause males to develop female characteristics, such as breast enlargement. Common causes include medications and brain tumors.
A condition where a painful lump forms in the breast due to imbalances in female hormone levels, causing symptoms to occur before and during menstruation.
A testicular tumor is a lump or swelling on either testicle. The tumor may be benign, which doesn't spread to other parts of the body, or malignant, commonly known as cancerous, which means it can spread to other parts of the body. Testicular cancer is usually first seen as a pea-sized hard lump but it can grow much larger. Pain, discomfort, or numbness in the affected testicle might be present.
Your doctor may ask these questions to check for this symptom
Are your nipples so sensitive that you have discomfort, pain, or itch when your clothes touch them?
