What Causes Dark Brownish Patch Around Breast Area?
I have an skin condition around my bra line were my skin has turned dark brown in color and it causes me to itch it also has a slick feel to it when I perspire. I itch a lot. I have used all kinds of antibacterial soaps and while it helps somewhat I can t get rid of this. Please help.
Hi! I really appreciate your concern. Nothing to worry about it. Apparently it looks like a fungal infection involving the area around your bra line. Use Clotrimazole or Terbinafine ointment on the affected area two times daily and keep it dry after using the ointment for atleast 6-8 hours. Hopefully it will work. Regards!
