Brief Answer:
Fungal infection

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query.
You might have developed fungal infection.
It is common in folds of skin like under breast area.
I treat such cases with a topical antifungal cream like clotrimazole to be applied twice daily for two weeks.
It gives good results and is safe and effective and usually available over the counter.
If possible upload a photograph of the involved area.
This will help me in giving a closer diagnosis and better way of management.
Waiting for your response.
Thank you
