Options For Extremely Sensitive Nipple Even After a Year?

February 26, 2012
Asked By:luana8398 in Kapolei, HI

I have had hypersensitive nipple (mainly the right breast) for some time now. I was taking something to help (nuerontin, for about 6 months) but this made me gain weight so I had to stop taking it. Now it has come back and while it is not SEVERE, it is very bothersome. It can get painful and is a constant. My dr said 2 to 3 years would be the possible duration. Any feedback on this?
