[|Human|] I have had a patch of irratated, extremly itchy, flaky dry skin underneath each nipple on each of my breasts. this has been for about 3-4 weeks, and symptoms have gotten worse to a point where i cannot fall asleep because the dry skin is itching so much. i cant scratch, because it hurts to do so. Ive tried lotions, baby powder, hot and cold showers, and nothing seems to work.
[|AI|]  Hi, Welcome and thanks for posting your query to Chat Doctor. After reading your query there are the best possibility appears to be of "Scabies" infection caused by mite especially causing night itching as is experienced by you. Though there are other areas of involvement too, such as finger webspaces, abdomen and genital areas but to begin with, it starts at one place as in your case around nipple area. The mite is not visible, but we experience the nocturnal itching only which is so worse at night that the patient is not able to sleep. It can be very well treated with anti-scabies treatment. Do anybody else in family or surrounding have night itching - if yes then should also be treated for the same, otherwise can recur back form that source. You can meet a dermatologist who can guide you for the best of possibility of the problem and give you treatment for the same. Do not try to scratch the area as can lead to secondary infection. Wish you good health. Chat Doctor.
