In addition to yeast, I'd want this mom to be checked for Paget's disease and inflammatory breast cancer. It's NOT normal for one nipple to itch for years. Does mom have any conditions that would predispose to neuropathy? Sometimes a damaged nerve can cause referred pain or other sensations... Any drug with anti-inflammatory properties would reduce neuropathy pain.
