What Causes A Feeling Of Lump And Soreness Around Nipple?
Hi,
My son is soon to be 18 at University and i just got a concerning call from him. He is worried because his nipple suddenly became sore and he felt some form of a lump, squeezed it until a clear liquid came out. I told him tosleep on it, stop squeezing it and go to the health clinic in the morning. If they were worried they suggest further investigation. He has of course read the worst possible on line. I said that maybe it is just hormonal and the worry of finals has caused his hormones to go crazy. Do you think we need to be overly worried at this point?
