What Causes Light Brown Spots Under The Breasts?

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 '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
