Oh I get that too. I'm 48 and i itch under my breast or between them, i think some comes from sweating, but i also find scratching my breasts and then I find a sore, not a scratch but a sore. I have no clue what this is.

Is anyone breastfeeding? You can get yeast infections on your nipples. This can also come when you are not breastfeeding. I had the same symptoms. The gyn told me to buy regular over the counter yeast infection cream like Monostat. And rub it on the affected area for 7-10 days. If you do sweat alot and breasts feel moist this is highly likely. If you are breastfeeding be sure to wash the area off and remove all meds before baby eats.

Hi, no im not breastfeeding my daughter is 9. They seem to start out like little bumps and then when i sctrach they break and leave a sore in its place, there are on the top and sides of my breast but not on the nipple, what ever it is it looks really bad. I have started to get them on my arms too :mad: Guess its time to make an appointment with the doc. I just hate going because the only thing they ever tell me is to loose weight like that is the answer to all my problems. I am sure it is to a majority but it is not to all. I hope that you find relief too. I will share what my Dr. says when i know more
