About me: 34 years old, non smoker and bear no children.
A few months ago, I noticed what appeared to be like an mosquito bite on the lower bottom portion of my right areola (right breast). Needless to say, I scratched it constantly, which made it worse. Over time, 1 sore became 3 on my right areola (all about the same size, in different areas).
Shortly thereafter, the sores moved to my other breast! Same symptoms: itchy areas of the areola, which are often red. The only thing that stops them from itching is Diprolene, which I use in my ears (I have a similar skin condition in both of my ears).
Once I use Diprolene, it looks like dry skin where the sores were; it's flaky. When I stop using the Diprolene, they resume itching again (which does happen with my ears, as it is a chronic problem with them, due to allergies).
I don't know if this is coincidental, but these sores appeared shortly after I bought a water bra. I wore it for several months and figured that was the common denominator, so I stopped using the bra a few days ago but the problem persists.
Now I read about Paget's Disease of the Nipple and I am convinced I am dying of cancer but every place I read stated it usually affects only one breast.
As of right now, I have 3 red areas on my areola - on EACH breast. It doesn't appear to be on my nipple but the area of each breast is the same: bottom areola, side of the areola (facing inside of breast) and top of the areola.
They itch and are red naturally when I itch them. No discharge or bleeding.
I'm mortified I'm dying.
