My nipples have pink and white bumps on them. The pink ones are pretty big but the white ones are pretty small, they're not around my nipples, they're on them. When I squeeze the white ones white string like stuff comes out, kind a looks like pus. Too embarrassed to say anything, please answer my question.

Hi Dkitts,

I don't think it is pus.  I think it is sebum you're seeing.  Sebum is basically a collection of skin cells and oils from your sebaceous (oil) glands.

It might be related to folliculitis, an inflammation of a hair cell OR more likely a sebaceous cyst.

You'd need an exam by your doctor to be sure.

I'd suggest you DO NOT squeeze them and also treat them like you would a pimple or zit.  Warm compresses can help them drain.

Hope it helps.

Thanks a lot, so putting warm water on it will make them go away.

Warm compresses, like a wash cloth soaked in warm water. The heat can help them drain.
