Brief Answer:
Fungal infection

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query.
Probably you have developed fungal infection.
Area under the breast is moist and prone to develop fungal infection.
I usually prescribe anti fungal powder for such cases and have seen excellent response with that.
You too can try that in consultation with your doctor.
Stress might not be related to this.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you
