Hello,
Thanks for the query.
Sun burn under the breast is uncommon as it is a covered area.

According to me you have developed an infection called as intertrigo.

It is a mixed bacterial and fungal infection.

You can apply a antibacterial antifungal combination.

This will give you relief.

Let me know if you have any other doubt.
