What Causes Nipple Dryness And Bumps On My Areola?

Hi I m a teenage girl, sexually active, never had a child. And lately my nipple was peeling, like dry skin was coming off, and there were little bumps on my areola, now it s turned into a burning sensation on my nipple with any kind of material touching it. I ve looked this up and seen its a nursing problem and a bunch of problems with babies, but since I ve never had one and am not pregnant now I don t know what d it be. Help me?

Hi,

Don't worry it's just excessive dryness. Use a good emollient/moisturizer preferably only without perfume and alcohol two to three times in a day. You should feel better soon.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
