Hi,
Itchy nipple has various reasons like some allergic conditions (dermatitis), fungal infections, bacterial infections and very rarely some kind of breast cancers like Paget's disease. As you have associated left side frozen shoulder as well, there is a need to rule out whether there is any association between these two. I suggest you to undergo a proper physical examination with a General Surgeon doctor to make a proper diagnosis.
Take care!
