What Is The Cause Of Swelling And Itching Around Nipple?
I have a very irritating almost like a very little pimple on the very tip of my left nipple. I just noticed it all of a sudden this morning when it started itching. The area seems to be red and maybe just a little swollen. I have no clue what it could be any help would be great!
It may be nipple eczema. Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. I would recommend you to take oral steroid in tapering dose and antihistaminics like cetirizine. Apply mild steroid cream on the lesion. Avoid soap bath.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
