Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns. I suggest you not to worry much. You did not mention your age as well as sex. In females, swelling of nipple is definitely a sign of puberty.

in males, in some cases it is a sign of puberty. Even after puberty period, male do have swelling of nipples. this could be due to hormonal imbalance, obesity, lack of exercise. But there is nothing to worry..

All these troubles are curable. Hormonal imbalance with the help of proper medication. Others with the help of proper exercises.

analyze yourself properly first and then decide. But don't worry. Worry might lead to anxiety.

You might need psychological counseling and or psychotherapy. Please visit http://psychocure.webs.com for behavior modification, mental health assistance, Cognitive Behavior Therapy and other psychotherapies.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
