Itchy Breasts, no relief! I have been having severly itchy boobs for months now. I thought maybe it was just the colder weather, but I'm in Texas and it has not been cold much at all. I have tried using Vasaline Intensive Care Lotion for Extra Dry skin. I have tried changing soaps, shampoos, conditioners, laundry soap, fabric softener..
I can tolerate it during the day, but at night as soon as I take off my bra..my nipples are erect and rub against my shirt and that just starts the itchiness, My nipples itch and the surrounding area. My boobs are so sore too! They feel bruised! I am not pregnant. I just finished a period, but they that doesn't really have anythingt to do with it because they have been itching for months. I even tried using the cream used for yeast infections because I heard you can get a yeast infection in your breasts...so
I haven't been to the doctor for it, but oh my goodness it's bad. I can't sleep sometimes because I'm itching so badly! I feel like I have poison ivy on my boobs! I scratch and scratch until they get all red and bruised. This is not fun! Has anyone else had this problem? What can I do to relieve this?
I'm also kinda scared because I looked up itchy breasts on the internet and it says it's a symptom of pregnancy (definitley not pregnant) or breast cancer.
I'm 29 years old.. Someone please please please give me some advice! |
