Treatment For Red Bruise And Peeling Skin On Underside Of Breast?

I have had a bruise on the underside of my left breast for nearly 4 months now. For about 2 weeks now I have had a pain in that breast, but not in the same location as the bruise, more towards my arm pit. Today the skin around the bruise peeled off. It is still red and purple with no signs of healing. Should I see a dermatologist or my OB? I am only 26 so I have nothing to worry about right?

Hello ma'am and welcome.

It would be better to visit a dermatologist as this could be a rash due to increased moisture or irritation from the inner wear. I would also recommend you to avoid wearing a brassiere till you meet your doctor and he/she advises to contonue or discontinue the same. I do not think you have anything to worry about ma'am.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
