Hi. Itchy nipple indicates an allergic problem. Itching gives rise to the swelling, increased sensitivity. The discharge may be due to irritation. Nipples should be everted, never inverted. Is there any swelling which you can feel just below the ares you mentioned? If yes you may have to go for further examination like mammography, FNAC for the swelling and so on.
