What causes nipple pain?

1. Premenstrual breast pain: Many women experience breast fullness, hardness, and tenderness before menstruation. In severe cases, the breasts will become swollen and painful with the slightest vibration or collision. This is because the estrogen level in the body increases before menstruation, causing breast hyperplasia and edema of breast tissue. After menstruation, the above changes may disappear.

2. Breast pain during pregnancy: Some women experience breast pain around 40 days of pregnancy because the placenta and villi secrete a large amount of estrogen, progesterone and prolactin, which causes the breasts to enlarge. In severe cases, the pain may last throughout the pregnancy and no treatment is required.

3. Postpartum breast pain: Breasts often become swollen, hard and painful 3 to 7 days after delivery. This is mainly due to breast lymph retention, venous congestion, interstitial edema and obstructed mammary ducts.

There are too many factors that can cause nipple pain. We must treat it objectively. If the pain persists for a long time, you should go to the hospital for a detailed examination to avoid missing the best time for treatment.
