I am a large breasted woman and I have developed strange rash between my breasts. I have noticed this has first occurred during the summer, and I was surprised. I have never had something like this, so I was wondering if the heat and humidity could be causing this. Anyways, since this rash between both of my breasts does not stop, I do not know what to do. Can anyone tell me what could it be and is there anything I could do to stop it?

I have developed something that looked like chicken Pox type sores under and beneath both breasts. That is why I could understand how worried and annoyed you must be. Beside rash between my breasts, I have noticed that as well as the outer calves of my legs, and on my arms. I have been to few different doctors, when I wanted to fight this unpleasant symptom. They gave me something for it, but never quite explained what it was, so I still cannot understand the reason. The medicine they gave me did not work, and I have feeling like I have tried everything, but nothing helped me. I have had this for two years, and I am very upset about it, because it seems cannot be solved. I was talking to the only doctor who told me that most likely I have a rash called intertrigo. She told me this rash is aggravated by skin rubbing against skin. Yeast infection was possible but much less likely, so she told me I should start with OTC hydrocortisone 1% twice a day. Moreover, I should use it along with powder to keep the area dry.

I am also big breasted, i had the same problem for the longest time, but i never went to see a doctor i figured it out on my own, i believe it was from wearing a bra that caused my skin to rub together constantly, and when i sweated it just got worse and worse, so i used baby powder dailiy and bought a bigger better bra. ANd it cleared right up after a few months.

I just watched a segment on the news last night. It is a new form of breast cancer. I don't remember the name of it but it starts with a rash on the chest breast area.

I also heard from a doctor that it is a new form of breast cancer . You need to go to the doctors and test you for this

I just came across this pharmacy website.... hoskingpharmacy.com, they sell something call breast cream and it is possible that the rash on the skin between your breast is a form of a fungus caused by sweat, heat, and the skin of the breast rubbing together. The breast area does not get that much air ventilation but that can be treated. So check out the website and see if it is helpful.

I think that the form of breast cancer that some people mentioned in this thread happens at the nipple.
If the first poster has the problem I'm searching for it's underneath, or in my case, between my breasts.

About a decade ago I gained a lot of weight and started getting this rash. My ob/gyn told me it's a fungus and use tinactin or any anti-fungal cream. I only get them occasionally but treat with this cream and it clears in about 3 1/2 weeks.
