Itchy Left Nipple. Mammograms, Ultrasounds And MRI Done. Concerned?

I have been experiencing an itchy left nipple for about a year and a half. I have had mamograms, utlrasounds, and a MRI. as well as a biospy. Biospy was for a lump in the breast, no nipple biospy was done. It came back benign. I continue to have symptoms. Latest mamogram and the 3-D test showed changes in my same breast. I go in tomorrow for a sonagram. Should I be concerned?

Hello,
Welcome to healthcare magic. You no need to worry about itchy nipple, as all the test reports are normal. Even biopsy shows benign condition. It may the reaction to your latex in your inner wear or soaps and detergents. Fungal infection may occur but it is uncommon. Very rarely a form of skin disease called pagets disease can occur. Please Take some antihistamines and consult a surgeon
