  • Nipple rash

This can also be a sign of breast growth.

They could just be dry. Put a little Vaseline or lotion on them everyday and see if it helps. If not get baby oil and put it on when you're in the shower.

Dryness around and on the nipple, try applying Vaseline or lotion after shower to ease the discomfort. If its hurts when itching, then seen a doctor, could be some infection.
