What Causes Recurring Itching In Nipple?

I have been experiencing itchy nipple incessantly at times. I applied Over The Counter CVS brand Maximum Strength CORTISONE. It only helped for a few days and the itching starts again. I ve had it for almost 5 weeks already. Should I be seriously concerned? Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thank You!

Thanks for consulting. I have carefully worked through your case, and I can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I assure you not to worry as I will take care all of your medical concerns.

if there is no discharge from nipple then there is nothing much to worry about.

take tablet allegra 120 mg twice a day for itching, can continue using the steroid cream if ti helps.


Hope it helps. If you need further, detailed and quick assistance related to any health issues in future, feel free to 'ask me a question' directly from my profile.
