A member asked:
I am concerned because for about the past week i have noticed my nipples are constantly hard and become more tender each day the pain is more intense. why, what should i do?

Exam needed: An examination is needed to help determine the cause of the nipple pain and firmness. Inflammation might be causing these symptoms, and we would want to try to identify the underlying problem. Breast symptoms-pain, swelling, skin changes , lumps- warrant a doctor visit.
