Suggest Remedy For Itchy Nipples
My nipples have been itching like crazy, they are tender to touch. I also have an itchy red rash under my arms, near the armpit and on my legs. I am wondering if I could be having a reaction to the chlorine in a pool, as I have been swimming daily?

Hello - Welcome to HCAM.
I looks like for me inflammation of the breast, which also cause such symptoms.
But since its seen also under your arms - it looks like generalised, which can be seen in the case of allergic reactions.
However it cannot be ignored and i wold examine rashes and come to conclusion.
So please visit your doctor if the symptoms persists. Hope it helps. Thank you.
