Hi - Please read our post about nipple issues; you may find something there that helps you figure out what's going on. If your breast continues to itch for the next week or so; if the itching gets worse and more constant; or if your breast seems to be getting infected—red, hot, swollen, sore/painful—please see a doctor. An itching breast can be a sign of a very rare form of breast cancer, inflammatory breast cancer, so you'd want to rule that out. But it's probably osme other issue. Good luck - PJH
