Brief Answer:
Caused from friction, may lead into a fungal infection
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thank you for using HCM to post your question.
I saw the pictures carefully.
It looks like a rash from friction which has irritated the skin of under the breast (same mechanism as diaper rash if you know what I mean.
You should apply a cream with vit A+D+E, to keep the area soft.
If it doesn't get better, but worse then you may need to use an antifungal cream like Econazole 1% or clotrimazole 2%.
Hope this is helpful.
Let me know if you need more clarifications.
Otherwise please kindly close and rate the answer.
