Hello - i'm sort of new! to the forum, anyway. 

I've been through my treatment, and i think all is still well. 

After my  lumpectomy, the surgeon said i needed a second op to remove more. I agreed of course. 

Just before going in he suggested he could do corrective surgery on my inverted nipples, while under anaesthetic. I agreed, but i didn't really care either way.

The nipple surgery didn't work.  Nipples reverted to being inverted. My left one which used to come out doesn't any more. (the side of the lumpectomy). Now i'm plagued with itching. How can i clean them properly? I'm hoping that's all it is. 

I've already been discharged.
