Scratch In The Upper Portion Of Nipple, Pain In Boobs. Serious Problem?
Sir, I am a newly married person, just 7 days. But I got a problem yesterday. I used to press my wife s boobs hardly at our intimate time. But yesterday after 4-5 hours of our intimate time, she started feeling pain in his left boob and saw that there is a scratch in the upper portion of her nipple . Today morning the pain totally decreased but as the hours passing, today the pain is again increasing. I know this happened because of me. I am confused of what to do. Please help me. Is it a serious problem to be taken care of? Or I need to go to the doctor? Or something else?

Hello Arijit and welcome
Do not worry it will resolve by its own. The only care you have to take is that do got let the scratch got infection. Apply antiseptic cream at the site and do not wear tight inner wears, that will increase your problem. Also do not press the boobs till it heal completely.
Take anti-inflammatory drugs like Ibuprofen to reduce pain and local inflammation.
If the scratch does not show any sign of healing in 1-2 days you need to get consult your doctor and examined properly.
Hope this will help you
Best Wishes
