Hi,

It could be an eczematous rash. I would recommend you to apply topical steroid antibiotic combination cream on the affected area along with frequent and regular application of a moisturizing cream on the entire breasts 3-4 times in a day.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Asmeet Kaur Sawhney, Dermatologist
