A member asked:

A hard vein running though my breast around my nipple making my nipple larger then the other one..... painful to sleep on. i'm terrified?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Inflammation: The painful part sounds like inflammation. Take over the counter anti-inflammatry such as bufferin and get a doctor to examine you after the weekend. Serious breast condition is unlikely at age 22.Good luck.
