Suggest Treatment For Sharp Pain Like Feeling From The Nipple
I am 86 and am a care giver for my husband who has parkinsons. While taking a shower, I just noticed a sharp pin like feeling from the nipple on my breast. No pain or indication it was there until now. Any ideas what it could be? Would appreciate any help. Thank you.

Hi,
During shower, such pain can occur due to friction of nipple. Breast should be washed with warm water gently. Avoid the use of soap. This can cause drying and cracking of nipped.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
