What Causes Sharp Pain In Breast Nipples?

I m a 38 year old women. I have delivered and breast fed four children, all over the age of 15 now. Several days ago when I got out of bed and got into the shower there was a weird, sharp electrical pain in my right nipple. It has been sore ever since. The feeling isn t as strong as that initial sharp pain but there is still some pain there. What could it be?

Hello,

I think you should do an ultrasound of the breasts in order to check for possible formations. What the lesion is it can't be said without physical examination or ultrasound. The only thing I can say is don't neglect it.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
