Hi,
Looking to the history it seems that she might be having some local skin problem like dermatitis or some allergy to wearing bra producing this lesion.
Apply triple action cream on local part.
Avoid wearing synthetic bra, wear cotton bra.
Apply vaseline and keep local part moist.
Ok and take care.
