Anyone else's nipples itch?

Hey guys, I'm just over a month post op, healed up real well but my left nipple itches like crazy and I don't know why. I have feeling in both my nipples but I think maybe that left one is a bit more sensitive. I've tried keeping lotion on it, put some oil, even tried A&D ointment. Nothing helps.

I'm just blue-skying here. I'm not in your position and never will be, but it sounds like nerves trying to repair themselves. We're your nipples relocated during the surgery?

I agree it's more than likely repairing. I have very little feeling in mine (6 weeks and 2 days post op) and mine haven't itched yet. I just get like this stingy sensation every now and then.

Yea, I guess that makes sense. I didn't think about it being from the nerves. My nipples were relocated, I had double incision. They're basically still the same size cause I didn't have large areolas beforehand anyways. Perhaps that's why I've had feeling in them almost immediately post op.

Hey man! Sounds like your nerves are reconnecting. I had top with Garramone (DI, nipple graft) and they itched like crazy for a good few weeks. Then after that I started to gain more sensation in them.
