Because the area under the breasts can be dark, warm and moist, it can be a breeding area for fungus. It can leave the area red and blotchy with itchiness. The best treatment is an antifungal treatment like Zeasorb. You should treat this quickly, as it can spread and leave permanent scarring if not treated.
