Are breasts sensitive? Recently, I've been pinching them in order to adjust them in my bra, like I'll pinch them then pull them upwards. That night, I realized there were a few small circular bruises on my breasts and I'm positive it's because of this. Are they just extra sensitive? Or could there be something wrong with me?
When you pinch the nipples (especially the nipples) it is expanding even more, and may burst. Don't worry, the veins grow back VERY quickly and they are only small holes. The blood flowing out is the bruise. Now not only is the breast sensitive to pressure, the temperature makes more blood flow, the veins are tiny, these all contribute to easily made bruises.
If they are growing bigger or bumpier, or they come instantly, go see a doctor as those are abnormal.
Hope they aren't unsightly!

That's okay - due to the facts mentioned above, it would be slightly odd if it DIDN'T appear by the end of the day. They burst right away. [ TeenSoup's advice column | Ask TeenSoup A Question ]

Instead of pinching them to move them in your bra, a more breast-friendly way is to bend over at the waist, pull the band of your bra out and kind of wiggle till they're where you want them to be. [ NinjaNeer's advice column | Ask NinjaNeer A Question ]
