My right nipple itched for years. I heard it could be a sign of cancer. I told a doctor about it and was told it was dry skin. Guess what? I had cancer and it was near my nipple. Like others said, talk to your oncologist. It could be nothing but you'll have a peace of mind.

You may want to see your doctor. I had itching and redness. Turns out I had an infection. Put me on IV antibiotics for 10 days. Even years after our skin is still recovering
