A member asked:

I woke up this morning and it feels like my nipples are cracking and burning when being looked at them there is nothing there... what could this mean?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Exam: It is time for a breast exam, and if needed ultrasound and mammogram. This condition can occur with ill-fitting bras or tight bra fabric; however, no matter what, you need a breast exam.
