Is it normal to have small bumps in and around the nipple of the breast?

Dryness of the nipples could cause itching. They could be peeling, especially if they're dry or you sunbathed naked. What if there is no dryness or peeling? Note, in the original question no such skin condition was mentioned. Suppose there is no obvious anomaly and the itching feels as if it is coming from inside the breast, not from the skin? Although the entire breast area may itch, it may be the most intense around the nipple. One possible cause for this "is" Breast cancer, with or without other symptoms. Should the itching persist for more than a few weeks, she should have it examined by her physician.

If the itching is accompanied by a rash or becomes unbearable, you should contact a physician. Sometimes it is just because your skin is dry.
