Skin not breast: Itching is a symptom which arises from the skin, rather than from the breast (milk) glands under the skin. It is almost never an isolated symptom of cancer. Large-breasted women may develop irritation and itching from moisture collecting between breast and chest. If you have redness of breast, edema of the skin, or a breast lump see a doctor soon.

Probably Nothing but: I would advise seeing your physician and having an evalaution. Many things can cuae breast itching, but a significant one is breast cancer.
