Sse a doc: Before menopause there are 2 main reasons for sore nipples/breasts: post ovulation and pregnancy. If menopausal then fluctuating hormone syndrome (climacteric syndrome) can cause sore nipples. Lastly, sore nipples can be a warning sign for breast cancer. In a condition known as paget’s disease of the nipple, the nipple becomes irritated with redenning, pain and sometimes itching. See your doc.

That's not good: There are a variety of reasons for nipple pain. Try posting a new free question, but with more than 4 words. Four words leaves too much room for imagination... meaning we would much rather have a couple more real details. That said, nipples that both hurt may be related to hormones, medications, trauma, sports, etc... One's primary care doctor can take a look to find out what's happening.
