What Causes An Itchy Rash On The Chest?

Possible eczema, but might have a fungal infection overlapping.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thank you for using Healthcaremagic to post your health query.
I read carefully your question and I saw carefully your photos.
That looks like eczema. It might have an infection (fungal most probably) on top of it.
I would recommend to use hydrocortisone 1% cream, twice/day for 1 week, think layer. If better, continue it for one more week.
If not better use Ketoconazole 2% cream, which will treat a possible fungal infection. Use it twice/day thick layer for 2 weeks.
Keep the area dry.
If worse or not better, I would recommend seeing a local doctor.
Hope this is helpful.
Let me know if you need more clarifications.
Regards,
Dr. Papaqako
