Sounds like a milk blister: http://kellymom.com/bf/concerns/mother/nipplebleb/
If you get to the point where you decide you must break the blister, don't think that you must go to a doc to have it done. Do it yourself using a sterile needle. You're better equipped than anyone else on earth to know when the needle has gone too far.
I had one that came on during pregnancy. I worked on mine after a hot shower. I didn't use a needle. It took some time and some breaks and some labor breathingbut I worked it out.
