What Does A Rash Around The Breast Indicate?
I have a rash that is below the skin on the side of my breast that won t go away. Well, I will say that sometimes it disappears, but it becomes noticeable when I take a hot shower. It used to itch but it doesn t any more. I m prone to allergies. Im concerned because my dad had a rash on his back that began as a spot that doctors thought was an allergy reaction, and after a year it was discovered that he had NK lymphoma. It all started with an allergy spot on his back the size of a quarter. When a biopsy was taken from the spot, it was discovered it was cancerous. Should I be concerned?

Hello,
As a first line management, you can apply low potency steroid creams like betamethasone for symptomatic relief. If the lesion persists, it is better to consult a dermatologist and get evaluated.
