• Nipple itchiness?

I have an itchy, irritated nipple. The skin will get flaky and peel off causing it to bleed or leak pus. It is bumpy and discolored. I have used different ointments and creams but nothing helps.

Itchy, flaky, and irritated nipples that bleed or leak pus could be caused by eczema, a fungal infection, or something more serious like Paget’s disease (a rare type of breast cancer). Since ointments and creams haven’t helped, you should see a doctor as soon as possible to get the right treatment.

Most likely you have done skin inflammation on the area. Keep the skin hydrated and consult a dermatologist
