Nipple pain still after 1 year. Will it eventually go away or what can I do to fix it?

Asked By:ticklemepink in Beaufort SC

Its been a little over a year since I got breast implants. My left nipple was numb for months afterwards but finally the numbness went away, but the numbness turned into pain. I never let my husband touch that one ever. Well he lightly touched and it hurt so bad with almost a burning feeling. I cried it hurt that bad. Will it eventually go away or what can I do to fix it?
