It's been itchy for about a week now, and only yesterday did I notice when I actually looked that it looks a bit flaky. I haven't changed detergent, soap, lotion or the type of bras I wear.

right lets please relax a minute hun! It depends how bad it is, if its only a bit itchy witha bit of dry skin then I wouldnt worry much but if they are cracked or scaly you could have eczema.
it could just be a rash though.
I had itchy nipples when I was younger they came and went every few months, I'd suggest you wash all the bras you wear regularly to try and rid whatever might be causing this, wash them with a more mild detergant and use less.
also make sure you have a quick shower or bath every day this will definitely help or if youre too tired or don't have time then just give your breasts a rinse in lukewarm water.
I'd say if it gets worse or if its still itching in a week see your doctor.
