Some men just have more nerve endings in the nipples, and it causes more sensitivity. You may want to wear a soft "wife beater" type undershirt under your regular shirt to kind of protect them. If that doesn't work, try those little round band aids.
If the pain continues, then I'd suggest you see a doctor. If nothing is physically wrong, try some orajel or anbesol, normally used for numbing oral pain. It may desensitize your nipples enough to get through this hypersensitivity.
Good luck!

Some people are still growing at 18, it could be that your breasts are still growing. My friend's sister kept growing until she was 21. It could also just be hormones, in that case I would see your doctor. Another possibility is pregnancy, if you are sexually active, your breasts get tender and begin to get ready for breastfeeding as soon as you get pregnant. Another possibility is a yeast infection on your nipples, if it is red, irritated, and kinda flaky looking then that's probably what it is, it is mostly gotten when breastfeeding, but not impossible to get any other time. Just a few possibilities, but most likely you are just still growing. I just realized that you could be a guy, in that case, have a good laugh.

I went through a similar time as a teenager!
My Folks took me to the Doctor who reassured me it was Normal.
And was due to Hormonal Fluctuations as I entered Puberty!
Go get yourself seen by your Doctor anyway!
It's Not worth leaving stuff as important as this!
Hope you feel better soon!

Male hormones. Usually occurs around that age for a lot of guys, no big deal, you'll get past it.

Well, I think it's normal, but you're sensitive that's all. Go see
a doctor and he'll help you to relieve your pain.
