What Does A Red Rash Under The Breasts Indicate?

I have a red rash that is under my breasts along the band of my bra. It now seems to be on the sides of my breast and it itches. I have assumed it was from heat and humidity so I have been applying powder with cornstarch. Have had it almost a month. Any ideas?

Hello,

The rash could be contact dermatitis if it is only along the bra strap lines.
It might be eczematous if it itches.
Try using emollient. Keep well hygienic measures.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Saba, General & Family Physician
