Hi - Since this is affecting both underarms and your nipple, it sounds like a skin issue - have you changed laundry soap lately? Shower gel? It also might be a systemic allergic reaction, though that seems less likely. At any rate, if it becomes too bothersome - or if your breast seems infected (red, hot, swollen) - best to see a doctor, OK? Good luck - PJH
