Recently I experienced burning sensation in my nipples. But there was no scar or inflammation but just intense burning sensation and pain. After three days when I looked at it I can see black rough healed scab like marks on both the nipples.

It's due to fungal infection. Take 7 days medicine.

Yeast infection, also known as thrush, at the nipples is often felt as a burning, stinging pain that does not go away by reducing sources of friction. This type of infection can cause a swollen, red, sore breast and nipple. Mastitis needs to be treated with antibiotics. If it is left untreated, an abscess can form. Let's have a detailed discussion to ensure proper treatment.
