Thank you for query.it is not clear about the sex, duration of lesions etc.It may be due to infection in the area or breasts or arms or a condition called hidradentis.so please consult dermatologist for examination and diagnosis else you can get back to me for any clarifications with the photos.Dr Bharatesh D Basti Dermatologist and Venereologist
