What Causes Sharp Pain In The Nipple?
Hi im 17 years old and i workout out everyday. Ive been working out for about a year now and i feel a sharp pain in my right nipple when i touch it. My older brother who also lift had gyno and so did my uncle. Is this a sign of gyno or something else? I dont have much fat on my chest but my lower chest tends to be a bit more fat on both of my pecs. Can you help me out?

Hello,
Rubbing of nipples with hard shirts or T-shirts may cause pain. Other possibilities like hormonal changes in teenage also may be the cause. Wear loose cotton clothes while workouts. use simple paracetamol for pain relief. If no improvement please consult your physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
