Pictures of pimples on the areola

The nipple is a ring of darker pigmented skin around the nipple. The diameter of the nipple is 3 to 4 cm, and the color varies. It is rose red during puberty, and the pigmentation increases during pregnancy and lactation, turning it dark red. It keeps getting heavier during pregnancy and never fades. However, the color of nipples varies from person to person, and it is not possible to simply judge how much sexual experience a woman has had or whether she has given birth based on the color of her nipples.

It is normal to have small bumps on the nipples, but sometimes they are also a sign of some gynecological diseases:

1. Small bumps on the nipples may be neurofibromas: they are often part of systemic fibromatosis, with groups of soft or light brown melanin-filled hanging lumps growing from the nipples and nipple areas, without any discomfort. The epidermis is often composed of scattered, close lumps and pigmentation spots. Surgery to remove it is usually not required. If it is large, ulcerated, or affects the appearance, it can be partially removed.

2. Small bumps on the nipples may be breast lipoma: it is the most common malignant tumor of the epidermis and can occur in any structure with adipose tissue, but is most common in the epidermis and breast. It mostly occurs in obese female patients, and the age of onset is more common between 30 and 50 years old. It manifests as a single, annular or divided soft lump with clear boundaries, slow growth and rarely worsens. Treatment is mainly surgical removal. However, surgical treatment should be complete; if there is any residue, it will eventually lead to an attack. The removed tissue should be submitted to pathological examination to avoid misdiagnosis due to combination with other tumors.

3. Small bumps on the nipples may be soft fibromas: also known as skin tags or chemical fibroepithelial papilloma or fibrolipoma. It mostly occurs in the nipple area. The surface of the tumor is basically the same as the surrounding skin. It has a pedicle connected to the skin and is soft in texture. If the skin tag is large and affects the appearance, it needs to be removed from the pedicle, including some normal tissue.

What to do if there are small bumps on the nipples

The breast is a particularly important part of a woman, because its perfection directly affects whether a woman is attractive. Women with full breasts look more charming and are more attractive to men. I would like to ask, which man would not have fantasies when seeing his sister with big breasts? Beautiful breasts are particularly important for women, but what if there are small bumps on the nipples? Although the small bumps on the nipples are invisible, I always feel uncomfortable inside.

Nips, like nipples, are indispensable tissues of the breasts, and nipples also have their own unique endocrine system. The entrances and exits of most mammary ducts are concentrated in the nipple tissue, but there are still a few mammary ducts that open on the nipple. The sebaceous glands at the nipple are thickened and protruding, like small rashes or many ring-shaped lumps. These are Montgomery glands, or Monteggia nodes. They secrete a substance that lubricates and protects the nipples, which is why there are small bumps on them.

Pregnant women may also have fleshy lumps on their nipples. These are Montessori tubercles, which are located on the jugular part of the nipple and are formed by the bulge at the junction of the Montessori gland tube. From the 8th week of pregnancy, under the influence of increased estrogen and oestrogen, the mammary gland alveoli and mammary gland lobules proliferate and develop, causing the breasts to gradually enlarge. Examination showed that the color of the breasts and surrounding skin became darker, and lumps of flesh appeared around the nipples. These are normal changes during pregnancy.

Warm reminder: when you find reasonable bumps on your nipples, you must go to a reliable hospital for a comprehensive examination. Only in this way can you be safe and assured. Otherwise there will be unexpected adverse effects. Experts remind that small pimples on the nipples must be taken seriously. Don't be careless and make sure to take breast issues seriously.
