You better see a doctor to check for possible fungal or bacterial infections. Bacterial infections can be pretty nasty in the area, hurt, cause nipple discharge, redness, flaking, tenderness....bacterial infections in the area usually occur if there is some kind of cut..like piercing or during breastfeeding or alike
