A member asked:

Normal for areola to change over time when i'm breastfeeding! i've been nursing for 3 months and the circumstance is odd shaped now! concern?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No worries: If you are not experiencing new pain, deformity, inflammation or bleeding, then you are unlikely to have a health-threatening condition. See your clinician if it doesn't get better, though, or if you have further concerns. Hope that helps.
