<p>I'm not even joking. I started running and all of a sudden, my nipples started hurting. Is there something wrong with me?</p>
<p>lmao</p>
<p>10chars</p>
<p>Maybe it's just the muscle that's there that you are somehow using when you run? I have no idea</p>
<p>My pectorals don't hurt though. I was thinking that my nipples could be sunburned, but at times, they would stop hurting. Earlier today, for example, they didn't hurt at all, but I noticed that people looked at my chest area more than usual. When I looked in the mirror, I noticed that my nipples, especially the left one, were erect (I think only the left one was obviously erect though). My nipples aren't usually this sensitive, so I'm confused. As I type this now, my nipples are piercing through my shirt, and they kinda hurt (maybe this happens when I'm conscious of them touching my shirt?).</p>
<p>Ahhhh I imagine that hurting, a lot! Did you try looking it up online? I have no answers for you... Sorry. I hope they feel better haha</p>
<p>When i used to run cross country, my shirt would get sweaty/salty and when i moved forward it would press up against the nipple and sting a bit.</p>
<p>lmao...thats hilarious and I'm sorry....a botched boob job?</p>
<p>it happens because of friction caused by the shirt and your nipples, put band-aids on them when u run, no joke</p>
<p>Is it chafing? If your shirt was baggy and rubbed against them then it could be that. Its common with runners that wear baggy shirts, which is why many wear tight clothing.</p>
<p>oh gah i thought this was a girl posting at first! i hope your nipple feels better</p>
<p>This is a common ailment that runners face. Many call it "runner's nipple." The best solution is to run without a shirt. Barring that, you can put tape or bandaids over your nipples. If not, many put Vaseline over their nipples.</p>
<p>There are products out there specifically for this issue, but they're expensive and probably only useful for really long distance runs (marathons and longer).</p>
<p>lol yea, i ran a half-marathon a month ago and had the same problem...my nipples hurt for DAYS afterward</p>
<p>now i use nipguards <<< lolol im not joking</p>
<p>Dude, get a pastie</p>
<p>And as long as your not lactating i wouldn't worry about it</p>
<p>HAHAHA......HILARIOUS! LOL.......thanx for the laugh.:)</p>
<p>oh, and ps: gross!</p>
<p>It's actually...not that funny.</p>
<p>Anyone who's experienced this knows that bleeding</a> nipples is quite possibly one of the least fun things in the world.</p>
<p>Though I do suppose that NipGuards are kind of like pasties...hmm...</p>
<p>O_O at the image ^^^</p>
<p>Thanks for informing me, everyone. I will start wearing bandaids/NipGuards, or better yet, run shirtless. The tight-fitting runner's outfits are nice but aren't they expensive?</p>
<p>I used vaseline when I was running cross country. Worked like a charm.</p>
<p>Mr Payne,</p>
<p>Were you wearing cotton or nylon? I tried Vaseline with cotton, and didn't get much out of it...</p>
<p>:eek: .</p>
<p>UCLAri, this was actually with the jersey we wore for meets. Generally I didn't have a problem with t-shirts.</p>
