A member asked:
Are the little dots all over breasts considered pores? if so, is it normal for them to have hair sticking out of them and can they become raised or turn into a blackhead, vi noticed one seemed more prominent after an intense workout & sweaty workout

Hair follicles: Those little dots are hair follicles. Yes, it's normal to hair coming from them. They are usually present around the dark area around the nipple called the areola.
