You have to be examined. There could be a problem in the nipple or in the breast tissue. Your baby is only 20 days old, so there can't be any bite by the baby.
Another cause can be breast abscess. It is more likely. But diagnosis can come from proper examination.

You need to show nearby gynec just to check any engorgement or nipple crack is there!? According that he/she will guide you.
Meanwhile you should see that how is baby latching over .
If that is not proper you might have cracked nipple
