Nipple problem: Breast is a glandular organ always preparing for milk production during pregnancy. To keep the milk ducts open, fluid is secreted into t he ducts which pass on to the nipple, the central spoke of the wheel. If the nipple is inverted, the opening of the ducts are blocked and fluid cant pass out to evaporate. If any minor infection occurred in duct it doesn't drain and causes your symptoms.
