I'm a bit concerned because my husband accidentally bit my nipple, and now my left breast is hurting and feels a bit injured. It's been five days, and I haven't taken any medicine yet. Should I be worried about this, or is it time to see a doctor? Would really appreciate some guidance!
Consult a doctor, preferably a general surgeon or a breast specialist, as soon as possible, as a nipple bite can lead to infection, abscess, or even nipple necrosis; although it's been 5 days, seeking medical attention will help assess the injury and provide guidance on wound care, pain management, and preventing potential complications, such as mastitis or breast abscess.

I'm really worried about my girlfriend. On Monday, I fingered her and since then she had continuous pain which lasted until Friday. Now, it seems to have lessened to just once a day. When I was fingering her, it felt like I was hitting something. Can you help diagnose what's going on and suggest any treatment options? Also, if there's a way to contact you, can you let me know?
