I have small red spots that itch sometimes on my wrist, and under my breasts, any ideas what they can be?

Well...it coud be a number of things, and I can't tell you without a physical and history. You'd best see your primary care provider about them.
They could be bug bites, some kind of contact dermatitis from your clothing or detergent, excema, some kind of allergic reaction, a heat rash from sweating, or some other thing that I can't think of right now.
Have you tried changing your detergent or soap? Have you tried putting a hydrocortisone cream on them? Hydrocortisone cream always helps when I have an itchy bug bite, but my friend swears by Benedryl cream.
Hope this helps!
Meanwhile, here's a website with some pictures of different rashes and such: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003220.htm

This sounds like skin irritation. Do you wear a wristwatch? Putting a powder in the areas affected could help to absorb sweat and prevent the spots from forming. If this doesn't help, then I'd suggest to go to a dermatologist.

You could have clogged sweat glands (otherwise known as "heat rash"). This happens when your sweat cannot leave the body because the glands are covered and the sweat cannot escape. It clogs the glands, making them swell and itch like no body's business. keep them cool and dry, and they should go away in a few days or so. NO lotions, creams, or tight fitting clothing/watches/etc. It'll make it worse.

They sound like an allergy . Under the breasts could be from sweating.

What fabric are you wearing, new detergent in the house. Sounds like the cuff at your sleeve and the fabric on your chest is causing a rash from soap, sweat, fabric or detergent

It does sound like thrush early stages perhaps, indicators burning, magnificent itching, stingy while urinating. Canestan hc cream is the treatment. tell him to maintain properly removed from extraordinarily scented soaps!
