Blatantly posting for traffic. I have extremely itchy nipples. Have tried everything and been checked by the GP and nothing helps. Any ideas or advice? I’ve tried vaseline, e45, epimax, a minty one given by the gp, still nothing.

Not breastfeeding related at all.

please help in desperate

Sudacream cures all my skin problems from spots to sunburn and itchy rashes.

Antihistamine.

Canesten cream. It could be thrush.

Could it be thrush ?

My friend had that and said it was a nightmare to get rid of and had to boil wash her bras.

Thank you. I don’t think it’s thrush as it has been happening for a long time and the gp didn’t think it was… didn’t even mention it like a possibility.

Antihistamine.

I was itchy all over - arms, legs, stomach & back. And I was scratching myself raw and going insane.
My doc prescribed hydroxyzine HCL 25mg three times daily and a salve I misplaced (apologies).
The salve waa gross & I only used it once, but the pills really helped.

If it is thrush it’s very hard to get rid of as it will keep coming back.

I use Leti AT4 on itchy skin. Really good stuff.

Nipple's are full of hidden crevices. It's a beast to get into them.
