What are the light spots on my nipples? should i be worried?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Montgomery Glands?: If they are small bumps containing white material on the areola (brown area surrounding nipple) then they are likely montgomery glands. These lubricate the nipples and the surrounding tissue and are not a cause for worry.
