What Causes Irritation In The Right Nipple?

I am inquiring about my 12 year old son. His right nipple was irritated a few weeks ago, said it felt like his shirt had scratched it. Now we notice it seems to be harder than his left one and protrudes out a bit more than his other one. He has not seen any discharge or discoloration, and it doesn t hurt. Is this something we should be concerned about?
