The colored area around human nipples is called an areola, which is any pigmented area formed on the skin. The areola is caused by the milk ducts beneath the skin. The small bâ¦umps within the areola are called Montgomery glands, and serve to lubricate the nipple and the surrounding skin.
You will know right away if you have a nipple problem. You might see discharge, such as pus or a white, watery fluid. You may also feel pain, itchiness, or swelling in your nipples. See your doctor right away if you have any discharge at all or discomfort that lasts for more than a few days. You may also notice changes in the shape of your nipple(s) or in the areola (the skin around your nipple), such as puckering or dimpling of the skin. Always discuss changes like this with your doctor. Monthly discomfort that lasts just a few days could be related to hormone fluctuations during your menstrual cycle.
