There are several things you might try before going to your Dr.. You may have an allergic reaction to the elastic. Could be your laundry detergent. You may try using some stick anti-perspirant where it is breaking out or some powder (cornstarch) because it could be a reaction to sweat and the elastic or fabric. Also, your bra may not be a proper fit. Try some of this.....if all else fails, see the Dr..

It sounds like it might be from the irritation of your bra against your skin, and if you sweat there that can help to make you irritated at any rate I think that you should go see a doctor. I do not think that you have anything to worry about but the doctor can give you some answers and solutions.

Sounds like a heat rash, possibly? Your bra may be too tight + the heat causing it. Try using cornstarch or baby powder in this area for a few days, see if you see an improvement. And when you are at home, take your bra off.

It's because your bra don't fit you right and when you sweat your bra is moving around and causing you to get raw..You don't have to go see a doctor try putting some baby powder there to keep it dry and your bra from rubbing that should help..

Could be a yeast infection, you can get it on your skin.
Try warm water & a small amount of bleach. Use a wash cloth & be sure to keep the cloth rinsed out. Then use the same cream you would use for an internal yeast infection.
But you should go to the doctor to be sure. I got the above cure from a friend & used it, works. Also told my ob about it & she said it makes perfect sense, the bleach stops the growth of the yeast.

I went through a similar thing in college. I was tested for everything from eczema to lice. It turned out to be an allergy from my laundry deterent, Tide. My doctor says a lot of people are known to develop a Tide allergy over time. The close that fit closest to your skin, undies, cause the most irritation.

Yes I would go to doctor but until you can get there I used powder that has baking soda & cornstarch in it. Try that it helped me!

It may just be a simple allergic rash, but you can also get yeast infections under your breasts. See a doc.
