A member asked:
My nipples have turned puffy over the past month, they never used to be and i am really unhappy with them. is this just puberty? will they go away?

Things to look for: yes, it likely will get better over a couple weeks. Things to look for that might indicate a more serious problem such as infection are: redness, warmth, worsening pain, discharge, skin retraction, or a mass. You should have a doctor examine you if you notice these things.
