What Causes Peeling Of Skin & Puffy Bumps Around The Nipple?
Hi, I m a 17 year old female. Today I just noticed slightly peeling skin and puffy bumps around my nipples. I have also been wearing these rubbery things in my bra recently, could that have something to do with it? Is it something worse? I don t know.

Hi,
Your problem can be due to rubber inserts in bra.Can be allergic reaction to the insert material. You can apply Betnovate N ointment there. Take tab Cetrizine at bed time in case of itching (medicines over the counter). See a gynecologist in case of no response in 7 days.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
