Q: why does my nipples hurt and breasts swollen? and it's hard and hurts even if a shirt barley touches it

: sometimes one develops an irritation from exposure to certain products or conditions. A nipple dermatitis can occur in females who exercise a great deal or run long distances quite often. Suggest seeing a dermatologist for further eval and possible tx. This also might be a problem with your hormones and breast tissue.
