What Causes Brownish Red Spots Between Breasts?

i have brownish/red spots between my breasts and also a lot under my left arm. they seem to be spreading and I am getting really concerned. I have recently been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and fibromyalgia. they placed me on lyrica, I was on metformin, but they switched me to vanuvia. I am also on lisinapril and baby aspirin. can any of this be causing the dry skin?

thank you so much for asking your question on healthcare magic. I will do my best to help.

there are many possible reasons for the spots that you describe. however, the most likely cause is either eczema or a fungal infection. you can try an over the counter steroid cream such as hydrocortisone, but if that does not help, you should see your doctor for a proper diagnosis, as there are of course many possible reasons for these skin lesions.

I hope this helps, please let me know if you have any more questions.
