Nipples have erectile tissue in them just like the penis and will become slightly erect from stimulation. Some people will find stimulating the nipples to be pleasurable. It is also normal for breasts on both men and women to hurt if you get hit there. Don't be afraid to ask your doctor about your concerns. He or she is the best person to give you accurate information and help you become aware of what is normal for you.
