Rash on chest
Hey! I’m a FTM and I exclusively breast feed. I started to notice dry skin a few weeks ago but it’s turned into a full on red itchy rash all over my chest. Not really on my areolas or nipples but everywhere else on my chest. My hubby thinks maybe I should see a doctor but we just moved so I can’t even go see my midwives. Im 3 months PP so I don’t know if they’d see me anyway. Just wondering if anyone else experienced this? I’m thinking it’s maybe hormones? I did change detergent but I’ve changed back to what I was using and it’s not going away..

I had the same issue , started on my breasts and then spread everywhere over time, super itchy and uncomfortable, went away after about a month just kept putting on lotion! I believe it was hives but my doctor didn’t really diagnose me with anything specific
Yes I had something similar. The dr prescribed Nystatin and it went away really quickly. She said it had a lot to do with sweat and moisture in my sports bra and skin rubbing together. An over the counter anti fungal would help probably but I’m not sure if that’s safe for breastfeeding
