Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have itchy rash between the breast . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like dermatitis , paget's disease of the breast , hives and angioedema , psoriasis or scabies. I would suggest you to take over the counter antihistamine like benadryl , do not apply any cosmetic product , apply cold compresses and keep the area clean and dry . If condition doesn't get well then consult dermatologist for proper examination . Doctor may order certain test like allergy test and blood test to confirm the diagnosis . Doctor may prescribe immunosuppressants , corticosteroid ointment along with anti inflammatory . Doctor may also prescribe antifungal in case of fungal infection.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
