What Causes Red Itchy Bumps In The Cleavage Area And Under Breasts?
I have been getting red itchy bumps in my cleavage area and under my breasts on and off for years. I do tend to sweat a lot but this does not look like any heat rash I have ever had. The bumps itch like crazy, and even wake me up at night! I have been using baby powder to try and keep it dry during the day and it helps but hasn t gotten rid of the bumps. Any ideas?

Hi,
It seems that there might be having fungal infection on the part producing red itching bumps.
Due to plenty of sweating and less airy area precipitates infection.
Clean local part and apply anti-fungal cream locally.
Go for one oral anti-fungal medicine like Flucanozole 150 mg once in a week for 4 weeks.
Avoid more perspiration.
Keep local part clean,dry and airy.
Ok and take care.
