I am 22 and healthy, as far as I am concerned. But, the craziest thing happened to me. I did some heavy work without wearing a bra (please, it was not sex!), and I noticed a little pain on one of my nipples. When I looked, I saw that it looked kinda cut and there was blood. The first time it happened, I just ignored it. But, it happened again on another day. It was on the same breast.
Is there any cause for alarm?
It's kinda embarrassing to talk about this with anybody.

They may be cracking and dried out. Try using a good lotion on them and see if they get better. I heard that some women have that problem.

First off, don't panic. Yes, it is possable that you cut yourself while working, especially without the protection of a bra. But if the same thing happened again a day or two later, then thats probably not the cause.
Try some lotion. After all, our nipples have skin on them too, and they do tend to get a bit dry after being in a bra most of the day.
If that doesn't help, or it gets worse, then make an appointment with your doctor. It could be an allergic reaction to something, or worst case senario, an infection.

It may be caused by the friction or material coarseness and maybe tightness of your shirt. I would put some vitamin E or antibiotic creame on it and wear a bra until it heals. If it continues to be a problem while wearing a bra I would consult a doctor.

Sounds to me like a friction burn try wearing a bra for a few days and see if it stops it happening. Please take my advise and try to get into the habit of wearing one there are no muscles in them to support them so in time they WILL sag its so not a good look.

This may be caused by something as simple as an allergic reaction to the material your blouse or shirt was made of. You may also have brushed against something while you were working.

Well, if it happened more than once already then you should go to the doctor and have it checked because it might lead to a serious problem (not thet I am scaring you).

It is getting cold out and they can be dry and telling you to put lotion on them. I would go to your doctor to make sure that the bleeding isn't from another reason.

Oh your nipple must have cracked.......Why dont you place some moisturiser on it.So it heals and isnt cracked looking.Your nipples need to be in place so when your lifting things they wont drop and wobble everywhere.
