Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about this difficulty with your nipples. Unfortunately, this is related to hormonal changes. Get some pain medications such as Tylenol and Ibuprofen and all would be okay. There is no need to rush to a doctor right now.
I hope this helps, I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
