Blisters under breast

[Guest Posts]

I keep getting fungal infections under my breasts which is due to sweat but worryingly now I’m get little skin tag sized blisters which disappear over a couple of months but leave scars . Any advice please F

I am sorry to hear that you are troubled by recurrent infections and lesions beneath your breast. Some people are prone to developing yeast infections beneath the breasts due to the warm, environment and the presence of moisture from sweat.

You can also develop tender nodules (folliculitis or hidradenitis suppurativa) beneath the breasts due to occlusion of the hair follicles.

Blisters may be a complication of a skin infection but occasionally can be caused by uncommon skin conditions. I would recommend seeing your GP for further assessment.
