kind of itchy nipple.

Hey im 13, i have rashes on my legs but i put tha down to rubbing. But on my right nipple i have a small rash and the bottom it itches but I try my best not to ich it. All these different stories have freaked me out mum says if it gets worse we will see some one. But she is almost certain it is due to my paper round bag strap it does rub n my nipple and all my rashes seem to itch more when i take a bath. *hot water* so i stopped usng soap and i apply E45 to it. Im a bit scared could you tell me if m doing the rigt thing and what it may be......
thanks luke.

Hi,
Have you noticed any abnormal features on breast self examination like skin changes, breast lump, nipple discharge , etc.

Apply calamine lotion to hep soothe the itching. You should wear lose clothes and take oral antihistamine medications and see if it helps with your symptoms.

You need to consult your breast specialist or skin specialist to get a proper clinical evaluation and to get relevant investigations if required.

This could simply be skin lesions or some infective lesion or allergic reaction to some substance.

Let us know if you have any other doubts.

Regards.
