I've had the same problem for the last 15 years. I have had 2 children, now ages 19, and 13. The cold seems to be the trigger, but I've had a few episodes when it hasn't been at all cold. The pain gets so bad I have to take a pain killer, and sleep with a heating pad on my chest.....thank the heavens for heating pads!

Greetings. My problem is nearly identical. I'm 30, never pregnant, smoking, obese female and I have noticed that when my feet get cold my entire body gets cold. My family has very big calfs so I think it is bad blood circulation. However more recently for about two weeks straight (EVERY NIGHT) my nipples have been hurting. I have Bumpy Braile nipples meaning there are small clusters of nipple type bumps around my nipple on the areola which cause the majority of the pain. From a 0 to 10, I would say 10. It's so bad that I would take a Tylenol 3 or Norco or Vicodin. Most of the pills has codine so I don't know if I'm falling asleep resting my breast on a heating blanket or literally passed out due to the pain. A few years ago, I was dealing with this same issue. I would lay my breast flat on a heating pad. I woke up the next morning with blisters and burns on my breast due to the use of the heating pad. It took about a few hours for my nipples to relax.
If I could explain the pain I would say, imagine having a hard popsicle and breaking it in half oh so easy!
Imagine a icesicle failing and breaking into small pieces. Whelp I feel like my nipple could do that.
Im noticing a trend in age and no children..... What is this? Last time I went to the hospital, they began asking me crazy people questions smh.

i am 49 years old i have no children either, i have been dealing with this pain since i was in my 20's, like all of you the cold makes it worse, my dr sent me to see a breast specialist, they couldn't find anything......in the last few weeks (this is in the middle of summer and very hot) i have had about 10 episodes a day, the only thing i know that helps is to have aleve, but i can't keep taking them like candy, the pain hurts so bad, i can't sleep or do anything until the pain goes away, i would love to know what to do to make this go away

i was also told that I had blanching nipple syndrome, i am 49 years old and have been dealing with this pain since 1993, i can take aleve and it does take the pain away but it does take about 15-20 mins to help.
I have no children and saw that this is for women who are breastfeeding. Here i was thinking all these years i was the only person that had this awful thing

i am a 56 year old lady and run a little. I get nipple pain regularly but mostly when I am running. It is sooo painful that i have to stop and times to try and massage them whilst running but the pain is so unbearable they are difficult to touch. My nipples appear to turn a bluish colour. I am home today from my run and had to lie in bed in agony until the pain eased. I was in tears.

I had informed my Dr that i could have raynauds and was told no, but he has never seen what happens I had my husband take a few pictures of my breast so I can show my Dr what it looks like, the pain i have is like getting your nipple hard, putting a clothes pin on it and squeezing it, the pain is a 10 on a scale of 1 - 10, I am in Cincinnati, OH. I usually get it in my right breast but sometimes both and the same time, how does one go about getting diagnosed? Its starting to become colder here now and I am just affraid of what will happen and the pain is so unbearable.
i know that it says your fingers and toes, but i have never had that issue, it's only in my breast, i have brown eyes and hair so the blonde hair and blue eyes doesn't match but everything else does.

I thought I was the only one! After some internet researching I found the most likely diagnosis. Nipple Vasospasm. It's not necessarily related to breastfeeding and not a lot you can do apparently. The below article suggests keeping your nipples warm and taking supplements. I may try those hand warmer heat packs for your pockets next winter, but in my bra. Mmm, warm nipples.

I'm only 13 but I'm really cautious of my body and during cold weather my nipples feel like they are burning, the only the that stops them from hurting is if I apply pressure.

Hello, I am 28 and have been suffering from this for years. I read up on it a few years ago and discovered it was most common in breastfeeding women and thought I was just weird. you should have seen my family's faces when I said "My nipples hurt so bad it makes my whole chest hurt and when I warm up it takes forever for them to stop".
Anyways. I have found that it has to do with over constricting of the blood vessels. then I read Fish Oil pills help with circulation. Around winter time......I start taking fish oil pills 3 to 4 times a week and it ACTUALLY DOES THE TRICK!!!!
not a guarantee but thought I would share how I manage it.

I am 31 and also get severe pain in my nipples and breast when cold, no kiddies and the pain makes me almost sick. 5 mins with the hair dryer fixed the pain as sad as that is.
