What Causes Itchy And Dry Patches Under The Bustline?
Hi
I am a resident of bangalore. I am a female 40 yrs of age for last couple of weeks I have itching with red dry patches under the bust line and my busts feel hot and flushed I used to wear laced bras with an underwire and got to understand that they do coz allergies however I have been using Mycoderm powder as adviced by my gynec but the probles hasnt subsided and i am practically freaking out thinking this could be something else please help...
It may be intertrigo which is inflammation that occurs in the body folds such as under the breasts/ in the axilla/groin.
The inflammation occurs due to heat, moisture and friction between these surfaces. Sometimes bacterial or fungal infection can occur along with this inflammation.
Use a zinc based cream or powder as barrier protection. keep as cool as possible. Add a topical steroid cream to the antifungal powder.
Keep the surfaces as separate as possible
This should help.
