Itchy Nipple And Greenish Discharge After Scratching. Had Nipple Piercing In Opposite Breast. Are These Related?
Hi there. Today my nipple (left side) was itchy. I scratched it and a few moments later discovered a thin, light greenish discharge. Could this be from scratching it too hard, I do have long nails. The discharge is only from the left nipple and has since stopped.
I also recently got a nipple piercing on the opposite breast - could this be related?

Your discharge might be related to itching as of now but if you continue to have discharge from nipple then take some anti inflammatory to avoid soreness and also get your serum prolactin levels checked...a screening sonomammography is also recommended. ...
