What does it mean when your left nipple hurt not breast just nipple and you can't sleep?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pain: Nipple pain could be due to many possibilities including and not limited to friction, hormonal influences, inflammation, infection, or tumors. By far the most common cause is hormone influence with water retention and distention of the tissue. Check with your gynecologist for proper therapy and diagnosis. Hope you feel well soon.
