Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
Noted your finding of large area of red, painful, raw and weepy skin under one of the breasts that came overnight. You have washed and dried the area and placed a gauze sponge.
Such an occurrence can most probably be due to:
- insect bite or crushing of an insect
- Cutaneous infection.
I think you should see a Doctor for the following reasons:
To make certain the correct possible diagnosis.
To see if there is an infection or any such changes that need proper and urgent prescription and care.
To follow up the things till you get cured.
I hope this answer helps you to get a proper diagnosis, and get a proper further treatment. Please feel free to ask for more or if you need further clarifications or if you feel there is a gap of communication.
