Suggest Treatment For Itching On The Nipples And Dry Skin Patch

Approximately a year ago my left nipple started itching. Now there is a small dry patch on it and the whole nipple looks shriveled. I had 2 mammograms last May/June and they came back OK.. The 1st showed dense tissue in the left side, so they did the 2nd, which came back ok. Please tell me how to stop the itch, it s driving me crazy!

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, such itching of nipple could be due to fungal infection and in my opinion this can be best managed with "Miconazole cream" apply this on the nipple, hope this information helps, take care.
