What Do Red Itchy Spots On The Right Nipple Indicate?
Question: I just took a shower and I see a red spot about the size of a quarter below and to the left of my right nipple. The nipple itched yesterday but I didn't see a red spot. It is bright red.
Brief Answer:
Doesn't seem to be serious, apply cortisone cream
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for being at HealthcareMagic
I have gone through your complaints and it could be an eczematous rash or insect bite reaction.
I don't think it is serious and you can wait for few days before seeing a doctor.
If I was your treating doctor I would recommend you to apply cortisone cream on the affected areas twice daily for 5-7 days.
This should resolve it.

Dr Asmeet
