What Causes Red Pimples Like Blemishes On The Breasts That Have Raised Scarring?

I have red blemishes resembling blind pimples on my breasts, mostly at the sides. The remains of the oldest one are now a small slightly raised deposit of scar tissue. Another that came up over a month ago, got really itchy, after a shower say 2 weeks ago the blemish was replaced by broken skin. I m assuming that it was a pimple that burst, as it s healing slowly, it s red and feels like it s forming a scar tissue deposit, the same as the last one. On the other breast one appeared last week and another this week. I m in my 40 s, Female, Breastfeeding mother, my diet is pretty good and I take a womens specific multivitamin as many days as I remember. I have keliod scaring of the upper torso, from a mole removal. I also suffer mildly from excemaId like to know what might cause, things.How I can prevent more.and how can I treat those I already have?

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of red pimples like blemishes on the breasts that have raised scarring. Well these are common in fatty, diabetic and large breasts, as there is lot of sweating due to which there is accumulation of bacteria and viruses under breast folds and thus a skin infections develops and itching increases. It could be due to improper hygiene in that area. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to maintain cleanliness in that area and apply talcum powder. Wear loose and clean clothes. You should wear cotton undergarments of good quality. Bacterial rash has pus filled tubercles which need antibiotic regimen. You should visit dermatologist once and get complete examination done and start treatment after proper prescription.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
