Subject: Swollen Nipples

Greetings,
One of my spayed girls, Jamocha, seems to have swollen nipples, that appear
to be reddened. I would compare their size to the skin fobs that humans
sometimes get. You can easily see them, as well as feel them if you rub
her belly. She seems to be acting normal, but the swelling has me worried.
I have never read about this anywhere, and haven't heard of it being a
symptom of any disease, at least not that I recall.
Does anyone know what could cause this?
Happy Dookin',
