What Could Be The Splotchy Pinkish Non Itchy Spots In Between The Breasts ?

Hi. I have had splotchy pinkish spots in between my breasts for a few months. They don't itch or hurt, and they haven't gone away. They don't change colour when I push down on them, and I can't feel them with my hand, I can only see them. This is also the only place on my body where they are. They cover a lot of space between my breasts. Do you have any idea what this might be?

Hi,

I can understand your concern for splotchy pinkish non itchy spots in between the breasts.

In my view correlating with the facts you have provided it appears to be fungal infection of the area.

I suggest you to meet a dermatologist to for proper therapy. In between you should wash the area properly. If I were your dermatologist then presumptively would have preferred to apply an antifungal cream such as clotrimazole or miconazole. You can take an antihistamine such as loratadine for once a day if itching is present.

Do not try to pinch, pop or squeeze the area as it may cause secondary infection of the area.

All the best
