Have you ever had sore nipples that constantly itch irritatingly? No, please do not ever think of getting the scissors to snip off those nipples! Allegorically, if you really feel like doing this already, read on, you may have nipples with thrush.

Usually, the main culprit in skin itchiness is insect bite. Mosquito bites usually do not last long and could be easily remedied by calamine lotions. If you have innocently treated your nipples like you do with insect bits, chances are you will not get any result. If it is thrush (fungi), it will be quite stubborn because it will last for weeks, and if untreated, it could go for a year. 

Fungal infections in the skin can healed by over the counter topical creams applied liberally as indicated by the leaflet of the drug. If the right cream is used constantly and religiously, there is no way a fungi can continue growing in the skin.

In case of the nipple, lactating mothers are prone to it because lactation keeps the nipple moist, and that amount of dampness triggers growth of fungi. This also goes along with the drug treatment the mother is using which can weaken the body from fighting the overgrowth of yeasts all the way. As far as nipples with thrush are concerned, men also acquire them without reason. Yes, fungal infections just come and go, sometimes airborne, but basically, they come naturally and without serious cause.

Thrush is basically internal than external. When all kinds of organisms invade all environments, plant or animal environment, it can never be eradicated at all. In the body, it is beneficial in balancing the processes of the system. They only become harmful when too much, just like any other parasites and bacteria.

The friendliest habitat of yeasts is damp environment. When the nipples are expected to be dry, you may not suspect that too much sweat can leave it prone to fungal infection. The nipples have mammary ducts that are quite different from other part of the skin.

For men, nipples with thrush are not so much an issue as theirs are dormant. For lactating mothers, it could add stress. When breastfeeding is a woman's gift of nurturing, some harbor thrush and some do not. As breastfeeding gets established, the symptoms could be mistaken as blisters caused by sucking, as it is the first obstacle of any first-time nursing processes of feeding an infant. So it goes for several days, only to find out that the period of adjustment never seem to get comfortable. 

Then afterwards, nipples with thrush go advance with constant sensations like pain, soreness and itchiness, which could affect the mother's desire to nurse. It must be clear that it is thrush that is causing the problem. 

With some patience, fungal infections in the nipples could be treated the same way as the other skin. For breastfeeding mothers, it will mean an additional effort and care to avoid passing it to her baby

Fungal preparations, which come in tubes, are manufactured in almost the same formula. Use only the right fungal cream for thrush and not any other medications for common wounds. If thrush is left untouched but constantly treated, it has faster healing result. 

If you are a person who have recurring fungal infections all the time, then it is time for you to think of deeper way to cure yourself by changing diet, avoiding foods rich in sugar. For best result, contact an expert.
