Q: so i've had itchy nipples on my left breast for about 2 months. i applied some antibiotics when i saw scaliness and it resolved. but after 2 weeks came back again.
Cancer isn't something that would typically respond to antibiotics. But a mild infection or skin irritation wouldn't go on and on, as yours has. It's time to see the doctor, Anastasia, to find out what's causing these symptoms, and have it treated. In the meantime, our post on itchy nipples might offer you some insight. Take care- PJH
