Go back to the doctor and report that its back. If you can think of any possible reason you might have this, it would be good to avoid what ever.. or if you recall scratching your nipple while sleeping.. make note of it. also.. make sure the fabric next to your nipples is well rinsed and no fabric softener as that might be the cause. (have you changed detergent of fabric softener? or is your washer so full it doesn't rinse the clothes well enough? Sometimes people like to bleach white underclothes. If they still smell like bleach, do an extra rinse or run them through the wash cycle without suds to take out all the bleach as it could cause irritation too. Just some suggestions that have helped with things like this through the raising of several children. None of us seems to be able to tolerate residual detergent so I have to knowledgably under fill my washer to get a good rinse. Hope this helps.

Did you go to your gyno, or a dermatologis or regular family doc? It may be as simple as an allergic reaction to a new fabric, detergent, new bra, etc. You can also develop an allergy to previous materials. But, it may not just be a "rash" at all but a symptom of something much more serious. I would see your gyno. Are your nipples/breasts sore? Are they having little dimples where you previously had none? Do you have a discharge? If yes to any of these....please see her immediately. Good Luck!

You might be allergic to something, the clothes, bra, fabric softener, washing detergent. Also, did you finish the cream? The rash may not have gone away completely. Just go talk to the doctor, but try to think of all the ways that this rash could have been caused.

It is probably nothing to be alarmed about. Just call her back and make another appointment. She will be glad you came back. A rash right on the nipple can get nasty. So you should get it checked out again. Didn't she do a follow-up anyway?
Most doctors do.

Well, your doctor will probably give you a stronger topical medication (skin cream) and you will probably have to use it for a longer amount of time. Make sure you use it EXACTLY
as directed and finish the treatment completely even if it had gone away Not finishing the treatment can make the issue more resistant to medications and harder to treat. I know it hard to finish it all and do it exactly as prescribed but it's well worth it and you have less of a chance of it returning.
