Nipple sensitivity, please help! :(

I had my BA 4 weeks ago, everything is fine and I’m in no pain but my nipples are sosoooooo sensitive. It doesn’t seem like much to complain about but touching them is actually painful and I’m so over it! Can anyone help and tell me when their sensitivity got better?
Thank you Xx

Omg chick I was totally there, tight clothes hurt, lose clothes hurt, the wind was my enemy & it was all day every day! Thought it would never end! Went on for about 2 weeks before it calmed. Still a couple more weeks before the shower could go near the left one. I had a shower bra so I could handle the water on me, sounds ridiculous but the sensitivity was bordering painful.

I tried maternity nipple creams, numbing creams the lot

It did go but wasn’t fun so sorry you’re going thru it now x

You’re so right, showering is one of the worst things! It’s been four weeks now and only slightly improved. Even when they’re not hurting I just feel quite aware of them and then look down and realise they’re stood up without me noticing looool. I think the nerves are probs just all messed up from the trauma of surgery. Hopefully will get better soon! Xx thanks for your reply

Im 3 weeks post op and im the same everything else seems to be ok now and not getting no pain but my nipples are still so sensitive. I spoke with my nurse last week when i got my dressings off she said this was normal x
