I have a sore areola, what do you think it is?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
? Runner: If you are a runner this could make your nipples sore. Do not use soap in this area. If vaseline or aquaphor does not help you can try an over the counter cortisone ointment.If you are still not better i would see a dermatologist for a prescription cream.
