Rash On Bosom With Rough, Dry Skin That Itches On Both Breasts, Feeling Of Heat. Is It Allergy ?

I have what appears to be a rash on my bosom, with rough, dry skin, that itches.
It has persisted for a couple of weeks.
It appears on both breasts, and there is also a feeling of heat.
I don't think it's an allergy, as I have had nothing out of the ordinary. I have not treated it in any way,
just making sure I wear loose clothing and keep that area dry.
It does not appear around the nipple.
Could you give me some advice, please?

Hi dear

Welcome to the board of health care magic

As you have described your symptoms in your query. I can make out that you are developing some type of contact dermatitis.

It can be treated very well by some emolient lotion application along with some milder steroid application.

Hope your query is answered with your satisfaction and is useful to you.

Thanks
