What Causes Itchiness In The Right Nipple?

I ve been having this problem for about a month now: my right nipple is really itchy (the kind that hurts) and a bunch of skin just keeps coming off in sections and layers and it really hurts. I ve been applying moisturiser everyday but it doesn t seem to be helping?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello thank you for writing us here.
I would suggest you to use petroleum jelly or coconut oil. It would help you and you must wear clean undergarments and clothes. It would be alright in a week. Moisturizer would help for sometime but it would become sore again. Petroleum jelly would help you.
God bless you

Best regards,
Dr Gunjan
