Suggest Treatment For Breast Itchiness
My left top breast itches terribly and the nipple burns. My doctor gave me a cortisone/antifungle cream which has not helped and it even seems to be making it worse. My mother had breast cancer and I am presently taking Divigel which is an Estradial gel. Please help

Hi,
I think you should start anti-fungal tablets itraconazole 200mg once weekly for four weeks. Also start levocetirizine 10 mg for 2 weeks. I would also suggest you to do a mammography.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
