Extreme itching on left breast

Question

Asked for Female, 36 Years

I am getting sudden bouts of extreme itching on my left breast since the past couple of days. Since it was uncontrollable, I scratched on the itches which has led to some skin breakout on the breast because of my nails. I don't have any lumps on the breast or any discharge from the nipple but I do have a family history of breast cancer. Please let me know if this is a sign of that or else treatment for my condition. Can I put atarax lotion to soothe the itching on the breast.
