What Causes Brown Spots Under The Breast?

Hello I m alexa, I m 15 and a little frightened, i have these brown spots in between and under my breast that go down onto my upper stomach, it seems like almost dried skin and sometimes is very irritating, i did happen to look this up and what i found was quit worrying. I found that it can be diabetes, i am really hoping that s not the case, but i am kind of uncomfortable to show my mom and i am scared to tell me doctor. I was just wondering is it something that i should bring up or is there away to get ride of it before it gets worse?

Hi there, I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.

First of all do not panic.

What you are describing can be fungal infection or acne.
Please keep the parts dry and wet.

I will suggest you to apply ointment containing antibacterial and antifungal agents and mild steroid. Apply it twice a day for a week.

If the problem does not subside, I will suggest you to consult with dermatologist.

I hope this answer helps you.
Thanks.
