Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I gave birth to my third child back in October, recently after a medium/light brown spot appeared under my breast. At first I thought it was from my bra since it has an under-wire. But it has not gone away and recently another spot appeared maybe an inch away from the first spot. What can this be from? cancer?

General & Family Physician, Dr. Vasudha's Response
Hi,
The rash you have is due to the skin folds under breast which cause friction, (called as Intertrigo-very common to occur) This may get itching when infected by fungus & needs treatment if so.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
