A few days ago, I started experiencing a burning sensation undernegth my left nipple and the skin surrounding the nipple on the right side of the pec is sore to the touch and feels like a sunburn. My right nipple also experiencing the burning sensation but the skin feels normal. Is this just the nerves regenerating or an infection as someone has suggested?

Answer: Burning sensation after nipple grafts Thank you for your question and photos. You look to have gotten an excellent result. Your photos do not show any signs of infection. Obviously, this is difficult to say for certain without the physical examination. That being said, the sensations that you are describing could certainly represent reinnervation. If there is any question, a visit to your plastic surgeon should set your mind at ease. Best regards

Answer: FTM top surgery You seem to be healing well. It doesn't look like any type of abnormal healing or infection but this is best determined by your surgeon. Be sure to see him/her for a follow up with any questions or concerns.
