Suggest Treatment For Skin Rashes On The Breast And Stomach

I broke out in a rash on the breast area that spread to my stomach and back areas no itching or irritation. At first I thought it was an allergic reaction, but benadryl did not work. Then, I tried just cortisone with no improvements. Currently taking miconazole to see if this was fungal. Only on day 1 of it. However, today it started to spread to my arms. What could possibly be the cause?

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of skin rashes on the breast and stomach which occurs due to infection of hair follicles leading to folliculitis. It could be due to contact dermatitis and allergic reaction of body. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to get hormone levels monitored. Make use of product containing benzoyl peroxide. Take Multivitamin supplements. Apply topical antibacterial ointment such as mupirocin and do yoga and meditation daily. Drink plenty of water daily and add fresh fruits and vegetables to your diet. Apply Adapalene gel once at night. Also wash your face with mild soap and cold water twice a day , exfoliate your face once a week , apply aloe vera gel and apply azelaic acid containing cream twice a day.If condition doesn't start getting better in a month then consult dermatologist.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
