For the past week or two I've had a rash or something on the skin right between my boobs, and up my chest a little (good thing Im not working right now!!!), but I haven't really had time to pay attention to it because it's not severe or anything. It kind of looks like a bunch of acne, except I don't think it is, because the spots are smaller and not quite as 3-D (sorry if that's TMI) as regular acne. I think it's getting a little worse too, as in more spots.
I read somewhere that it could be a rash caused by estrogen. I did switch pills recently (well, a couple months ago), and though estrogen is good for clearing up acne, I've noticed I generally break out a bit when switching pills before things settle down.
I'm wondering if that's the cause, or maybe it's from wearing layers all the time now that it's cold (no air circulation?). I know it's not dry skin or anything, and it's not irritation from a bra. I'm starting to put some Aveeno ultra calming moisturizer a couple times a day, and I might try a little acne cream if it really is acne. Anyone else had this or something similar? What could I use to get rid of it? I really don't think it's bad enough to see a doctor for it, but I might if it doesn't go away in the near future. I haven't had chest-ne (or anything that resembles it) in a long time, and it looks icky.![]()
