Itching is something that many people find unbearable. In our lives, itching occurs in many parts of the body. Some are caused by mosquito bites, allergies to food, and some are caused by pathological changes in one's own physical condition. When part of our body becomes itchy, we will subconsciously want to scratch it, but some parts are embarrassing and worrying. Women's nipples are a very private place, so what should we do if the nipples are itchy? There are many reasons for itchy breasts. It may be an allergy to underwear, or dry skin due to seasonal changes. If it is related to menstruation, it may be "itchy and painful nipples during menstruation." The nipples belong to the liver, so this disease is mainly caused by the liver. The main causes of this disease are qi stagnation, blood stasis and qi and blood deficiency. (1) Qi stagnation and blood stasis: emotional damage, liver depression and qi stagnation, poor blood circulation, and blood stasis in the nipples. During menstruation, qi and blood are exuberant, aggravating blood stasis and thus causing this disease. (2) Qi and blood deficiency: After menstruation, the yin blood flows downward, and the qi is damaged along with the blood. This causes liver blood deficiency, spleen deficiency, and the nipples to lose the nourishment of qi and blood, or dry blood generates wind, resulting in itching and pain. What to do if your nipples are itchy? Adolescent girls may experience breast pain and nipple itching before and after their menstrual cycle due to endocrine reasons. At this time, girls must not squeeze their breasts or pick their nipples casually to avoid causing ruptures and infection. Wash your nipples, areola and breasts regularly. Because there are many glands on the areola that secrete oil-like substances, it can protect the skin, but it can also get dirty, cause lumps, etc. Therefore, it is necessary to keep the breasts clean. The above are some ways to deal with itchy nipples in women. I hope these methods can be helpful to everyone. In addition to these problems, itchy nipples can also be caused by skin inflammation, eczema, and underwear allergies. Therefore, it is recommended that you wear loose underwear, take off your underwear as much as possible when sleeping at night, and eat more whole grains and fruits, which are very beneficial to the breasts. |
