What Causes Red Pimple Between Breast?
I ve been having pimples under the skin inbetween my breasts. One of them surfaced and popped and now there s an indentation and red sore. There are other one s around that one too. It s been there for a couple months. I play a lot of sports, so I cannot stop wearing sports bras. How do I get rid of them?

Hi,
A photograph of the pimples is needed for a further evaluation before giving final conclusions.
From what you are reporting, I can understand that you:
- play a lot of sports
- sweat a lot
- wear sports bras
all these might irritate the skin in between the breasts and make it more prone to infections like fungal or bacterial.
I advise to keep the area well clean and dry; apply talc powder and antiseptic lotion at night.
Hope it was of help!
