Well, I just got back from the doc.
Here's the deal:

She couldn't feel the lump in the left breast anymore, and the nipples have healed wonderfully. I still have a lump in my right breast though, farther away from the nipple :(
The doc said that it's probably swollen lymph glands caused by a foreign object (rings) in my body. It can happen due to any piercing, or any little trauma to the skin, even weeks or years after getting pierced.
Anyways - I have 4 days of antibiotics left to take, and after that I don't have to see her unless my lump/nipple/breast/general health gets worse.
So, I'm happy :D

Wow, they put you on antibiotics? Is that for the piercings, or the lumps??

My wife got hers pierced for V-Day and isn't on antibiotics. She needs to get back to the piercer for a checkup. :)

Good luck.

I'll show you mine, if you show me yours... ;)

Glad to hear everything's OK

I had a swollen lymph gland once and had it removed to just to be safe...everything turned out ok except I'm marked for life with a scar on my back. Oh well, better safe then sorry :)

You should drink a "Slippery Nipple" to celebrate. ;)

Except you're not "of age" quite yet. :frown:

Electric Amish -
the lump was due to the nipple piercings (also probably an infection) - which showed up 5 weeks after getting pierced.
Tell your wife to clean it religiously - and remember: no contact with saliva :p

Thanks guys for all your support :)

I hope things don't get worse the next time you get an infection. I've seen some terrible skin infections from earrings, nipple rings, etc., some to the point where they deform the skin and underlying tissues or even cause necrotizing fasciitis! You definitely don't want that. Nope.

That's the point.
And yes - it hurt - for both nipples.

ouch, both of them!

just wondering, but only some types of nipples can be pierced right? girls like mena suvari who has puffy nipples won't be able to get them pierced correct?

why'd you pierce it?

In some cultures piercing of the nipple is extremely common. They use it to aid in carrying their belongings, mostly food and supplies. Their piercing is essentially used as a clip. You see it in National Geographic all the time.
