Common Questions and Answers about Heat rash under breasts
heat
for a long time now i have had red spots (or a rash) under my left breast and a little bit under my right breast. the rash is flat with no pus or crusting. it rarely itches and does not hurt. i have larger breasts and usually do not wear a bra unless i am going out to eat, the bar, getting my hair done, etc (i feel more comfortable with out a bra on)... any ideas on what this could be??
I don't know if it has anything to do with my breasts getting bigger or what, but I have a bumpy, itchy rash under my breasts. I really hope it's not yeast. But after moisturizing & baby powder for 2 days it is still there. Is heat rash bumpy? Should I call my OB or just PCP?
Hi ladies, I have a really itchy rash all over my chest under and between my breasts. I'm in the first trimester and I'm not sure if it's pupp rash or heat rash as i live in a hot climate. What can I do to make this go away or even just soothe the itch?
It tends to occur on areas of the body where skin touches skin, such as under the breasts, on the inner thighs, and under the arms. Tiny red spots with itching and pricking sensation are the characteristic appearance of this rash.
Jock itch is a fungal infection of the groin region in either sex though more often seen in men. Affected areas may appear red, tan, or brown, with flaking, rippling, peeling, or cracking skin.
Every single day, when I get out of the shower my armpits are very red. I also have the same redness under my sagging breasts and how have to wear a bra so my breasts don't touch my abdomen. Most of the time the rash disappears but sometimes it becomes very itchy. It seems that whenever I get too warm these areas get very itchy. Let's say if I lie down on my side and bend my arm to hold my head, the inside of the elbow becomes damp and the rash and itchiness appear.
Hi,
Heat rash looks like a red cluster of pimples or small blisters. It is more likely to occur on the neck and upper chest, in the groin, under the breasts, and in elbow creases.People suffer heat-related illness when the body's temperature control system is overloaded. The body normally cools itself by sweating. But under some conditions, sweating just is not enough and may manifest as the rash, If you live in a humid and hot environment, this is more likely.
Yes, yeast can and does cause a rash and itching/burning sensation. Typically the areas affected are the groin area and under the breasts. Sometimes under the belly if there is a bit of extra "fluff". Nystatin powder of Tegretol shampoo can work very well in these areas. Diflucan is a great drug for treating yeast that's "everywhere".
Colonoscopy won't cause yeast or GI problems, but is often done because of pre-existing GI problems.
Hope this helps!

Avoid using any lotions and creams for the meantime. Use a mild cleanser with moisturizing properties like Cetaphil. Also use cotton clothes and change the clothes twice if there is any increased sweating. Try keeping the skin free of sweat as far as possible.
Hello,
Without examination it is very difficult to confirm a diagnosis, but the symptoms are suggestive of prickly heat(malaria) or sweat dermatitis. Prickly heat (miliaria) is an itchy skin rash caused by trapped sweat. It tends to occur on areas of the body where skin touches skin, such as under the breasts, on the inner thighs, and under the arms. Tiny red spots with itching and pricking sensation are the characteristic appearance of this rash.

I am very large chested and occasionally I do get heat rashes under my breasts.. Usually I just treat it with some powder, keep the area clean and dry as possible and within a few day's it goes away. Here lately, the rash underneath my right breast has increasingly gotten worse.. It is itching, and the skin is peeling, and it's bright red and it is so intense that it look's like it's scarring my skin..The parts that are healing, are turning a brownish color...

I have a rash its (blotchy and red) under my breasts and behind my ears where my glasses lay. My doc said it's contact dermatitis and heat rash mixed lol she said hydrocortisone cream and benadryl will help with symptoms, mine get so itchy like there's a ton of little microscopic needles poking me. I hope you (both) feel better!
now 2 years later i have what looks like a massive birth mark the covers my back and breasts.. it seems that it reacts to heat.. in the shower it appears worse and if i am really hot it seems to stand right out and it gets really itchy when it is irritated. I have been to a gp about it and he prescribed cortizone cream, it has not made a difference at all. now it seems to be in patches down the back of my legs and making it's way onto my stomache in patches.

Treatment for heat rash is primarily provide a cooler, less humid environment. Keep the affected area dry and avoid using ointments or creams-they keep the skin warm and moist and may make the condition worse. Drinking plenty of fluids and wearing light weight clothing usually help. This condition may go away on its own.

It fits all the descriptions of a heat rash but it has been a week now and they are not on the neck, in the groin, under the breasts, or in elbow creases. Just on my arms and legs! I have tried hydrocortizone but as suspected, it was too moist for the area and made the rash feel worse. I am staying away from the New York City sun, no longer jogging at high noon but there is still no sign of improvement. I just got laid off and I am without medical insurance (can't afford Cobra).
also it happens underneath by breasts. im african american, and the color of the rash is a slightly darker brown and its patchy and squiggly looking, like it maybe a fungus kinda thing. sounds gross know. i also get it on my under arms and on my stomach. doesnt itch at all and sometimes it goes away but its mostly always there. could it be somethin im allergic to? ive done plenty of internet browsing...
