What Does Itchiness With Odour And Discharge In Nipple Indicate?

My right nipple has been quite itchy and has a horrible off smell coming from it. I wouldn't say this is a lot of discharge however there is a little bit of watery discharge that has been happening. This has been like this for some time however we just moved to Singapore and with the humidity it has become worse.

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having fungal infection on nipple giving itching, infection and foul smell discharge.
Clean the part properly with water and apply anti-fungal cream locally.
Take some antihistamine like cetrizine for itching.
Keep local part dry, clean and airy.
Ok and take care.
