Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
Just as of today my nipples have got swollen and my boobs are tender to touch. It started less than an hour ago. I had headache all day. As far as I am aware, I am not sure what is going on? I never had this issue before. Please help.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
A swollen nipple as well as tender breasts can occur if you are just before your cycle. If so, it is quite normal. It is due to the temporary hormonal fluctuation inside you. Otherwise, taking hormonal contraceptive pills could be a reason. Hard sex with rough handling of your breasts is another issue. Just apply some hot compress over your breasts and put them in tight undergarments all the time. If the pain is more, you can avail Paracetamol 500 mg tablets as and when necessary basis.
