Why do men have sore nipples?

Men's nipple pain may be caused by eczema, trauma, mastitis and other factors, and needs to be treated symptomatically according to the original cause.

Eczema is generally caused when the area is exposed to a dark and humid environment for a long time. If it is irritated, it will be accompanied by pain in the nipple area. It should be treated with topical medications such as zinc oxide borate borneol ointment, compound miconazole nitrate ointment, and calamine lotion under the guidance of a physician.

If local safety care is not done in life, trauma will be accompanied by nipple pain. You need to go to the hospital for local X-ray examination. You can also choose to use ice packs to reduce pain and swelling. Later, you can choose to use hot compresses to improve it. If the pain is severe, you can also take ibuprofen capsules and other drugs under the guidance of a doctor.

Mastitis generally refers to an inflammatory infection of the breast. It can also cause nipple pain after being stimulated by inflammation. Generally, it can be treated by taking cefixime granules, amoxicillin capsules, cefdinir granules and other drugs as directed by the doctor.

In addition, male nipple pain may also be caused by factors such as sebaceous cysts.
