What Does Red Patches On The Chest Suggest?
Hi i would like to properly understand something i can t be sure is worrying or not. For 3 or 4 years i ve had these red blotches through the middle of my chest and then under my pubic hair as well (not touching the thighs or the penis). Is this something to be concerned about? I m 20 years old btw. Thanks.

Hello,
A photo would be very helpful through the diagnosis. The symptoms can be related to a fungal infection. I recommend to use an antifungal cram for local application such as Fluconazole cream. I also suggest to use loose clothes and avoid sweating.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
