Does Tanning Using A Tanning Bed Cause Soreness In The Nipples?
Hi, My daughter is going to a new tanning salon and using a tanning bed. She has been going for about 2-3 weeks. She came to me just a bit ago and was saying that her nipple were hurting. They are very sore to the touch, clothes touching them hurts and there is dried up blood. Could this be from tanning? Or should she consult her family doctor?
