Itchy Rash On Chest That Comes And Goes Under The Armpit. Possible Causes ?

I have an itchy rash on my chest that comes and goes. I also have a scaley looking rash that now looks like a scar under my armpit. Recently, I've been having imprints in my skin where Band-Aids used to be and they are very red and itchy does anyone know what it might be? and I know for a fact I'm not allergic to Band-Aids because this has just been happening recently...maybe a month ago.
