Burning nipple sensation 6 months post-op. Is that normal at this point?

Asked By:roorahrah in Concord, NH

I had a breast reduction about 6 months ago and have been experiencing more burning pain in my nipples recently. This lasts about 3-5 minutes and occurs at least a few times per week, recently about once per day. Is this normal at this point? Should I expect this to go away eventually?
