I'm kind of worried because I've noticed these nodules on my nipple area for the past couple of weeks. My breasts are really itchy, and the skin seems to be drying out. Just last night, I got another nodule in my underarm. I'm confused if it's just because of the warm weather or if there's another reason behind it. Could this be something serious?

it might be lymphadenopathy, consult your surgeon near by
