Maylett,
A scaly nipple can be a symptom of a type of breast cancer called Paget's Disease of the Breast, but it would not occur in both breasts at the same time. Since home remedies like lotion are not helping, it's time to check with a doctor. There are several different kinds of skin problems that can cause itchy breasts, and using the wrong kind of lotion could just make it worse. In the meantime, try really hard not to scratch; that just makes it worse. Press really hard with the palm of your hand on the itchy place, but don't rub. Although this is a really annoying problem, it is not likely to be dangerous. I hope you are soon feeling better.
