Sweating/skin problems/odd nipples ...

Hello, VP-ers! Just a few random questions, hopefully someone'll be able to help me!

  1. Problem 1: My vulva [the folds between my vag and my thighs] sweats! Not terribly or constantly, it just gets quite annoying and a bit smelly, at least to me. I shave, so it's not like hair is holding anything in. I don't really work our or exercise, so it's not like sweating when you're doing physical things ... just when I take my underwear off at the end of the day, it's just ... sweaty. Any reasons/causes anyone can think of, and is there any way to prevent this?
  2. Problem 2: I have started getting weird "bumps" in between my breasts and on my upper back. They're not like acne, they're just odd white bumps that don't go away. What is this? How can I prevent it?
  3. Problem 3: My nipples are ... lumpy! Seriously, when I get cold or whatnot, my normally-smooth nipples get all bumpy/lumpy. They don't hurt or anything, it's just embarassing. Anyone else have this problem?
I think that's it. Sorry if I'm too vague, ask if you need anything clarified. Thanks so much for your help!

I use cornstarch to kind of soak-up the crease sweat. Even though I always wear cotton underwear, I still get sweaty. I attribute it to living in a desert, for me, but there are plenty of other reasons to sweat.

Do they look like these (http://www.kidzworld.com/img/upload/article/a2907i1_boob-185.jpg)? (Warning: Links to NSFW boobie picture!) They're called Montgomery glands (with spelling variations), and they're perfectly normal. According to < href="http://babies.sutterhealth.org/breastfeeding/bf_production.html">this site, they:

"produce a natural oil which cleans, lubricates, and protects the nipple during pregnancy and breastfeeding. This oil contains an enzyme that kills bacteria and makes breast creams unnecessary."

And we're just going to pretend that I formatted that link correctly. ;)

Stupid computers: miss one letter, and they act like they don't know what you're talking about.
