Rashes and infections can appear as red bumps on the breast. Heat rashes, for example, may be caused from excess sweating and clogging of the sweat glands. Another type of rash can be caused by irritation around the hair follicles. Ingrown hairs or even exposure to bacteria from a hot tub could result in inflammation and possible infection. Some women, especially if they have larger breasts, may get an irritation under their breasts from sweat that collects there. This can increase the risk of yeast infections. Your doctor will let you know if antibiotics or other treatments are needed for these conditions. Generally speaking, it is helpful to keep the skin clean and dry to decrease your risk for these rashes.
