I have itchy, inflamed patches of skin under my breasts and abdomen. How can this be treated?


This seems like a skin rash caused by a fungal infection that is prevalent when folds of skins are in close contact and prevents sweat from evaporating naturally. Overweight women are more prone and the affected areas are usually under the breasts and the groin area. Antifungal cream is able to treat this problem. You can prevent intertrigo by washing the areas often and powdering with talcum powder or cornstarch. If the itching is severe calamine lotion along with the antifungal cream may help. Consult your doctor on medicated creams.
