Breast itchiness

I was diagnosed with breast cancer almost 10 years ago and have been doing great! About 2 months ago, I started to get a crazy itchiness on the breast that had the lumpectomy and node removal. It's just itchy under my armpit and the side of the breast. It doesn't look any different though. Anyone have had this sensation? My breast has always been numb since the surgery/radiation, so I am thinking my the nerve endings are coming alive? It's driving me crazy!
