What Causes Sore Nipples And Think White Discharge From Vagina?
hard nipples and discharge
About the last 4 or 5 days my nipple have been really sore but not my boobs. They're sore to even touch and they're hard most of the time. Also, I have a very white, thick discharge coming from my vagaina. These are then only two symptoms I have but they aren't seeming to go away or get better.

Hello,
- Use hot or cold compresses on your breasts.
- Wear a firm support bra, fitted by a professional if possible.
- Wear a sports bra during exercise, especially when your breasts may be more sensitive.
- Experiment with relaxation therapy, which can help control the high levels of anxiety associated with severe breast pain.
- Limit or eliminate caffeine, a dietary change some women find helpful, although medical studies of caffeine's effect on breast pain and other premenstrual symptoms have been inconclusive.
- Follow a low-fat diet and eat more complex carbohydrates, a strategy that's helped some women with breast pain in observational studies.
- Consider using an over-the-counter pain reliever, such as acetaminophen (Tylenol, others) or ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB, others) — but ask your doctor how much to take, as long-term use may increase your risk of liver problems and other side effects.
- Keep a journal, noting when you experience breast pain and other symptoms, to determine if your pain is cyclic or noncyclic.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Richa Agarwal, OBGYN
