ok... i was in salt water for a while, and for a while i mean more than an hour. Well my breasts like really really hurt!! like almost to the point of me wanting to cry.It was mainly the nipple. Does the salt water have anything to do with it??
And one other question- i have these purple marks (like lines) on both of my breasts and i was wondering what they might be any ideas??
Thanx in advance!

It's normal, even though it does suck. And the purple marks are either stretch marks are visible veins. I would see a dermatologist about it. A home treatment to help stretch marks is cocoa butter, however. If they aren't extremely noticeable I would try that first and see if it helps.

And the hurtingness, well if you had cuts or sores on your breasts it would be that but if you did have cuts it'd be obvious and you wouldn't be asking.
Maybe you have a sort of sore or cut you don't know about??
