Q: One breast had an itchy red rash and now seems like I can see blood vessels in it. What do you thin
Hi - you say "had" - does that mean the rash has gone away? And do the blood vessels look red, or blue? Just trying to clarify your symptoms... If you have an itchy rash, and perhaps you see red streaks (that look like blood vessels?), then it's certainly worth getting checked out. It could be an infection, which you'd certainly want to have looked at. Inflammatory breast cancer is an unsual type of breast cancer that can sometimes be misdiagnosed as an infection; it makes your breast itchy, or feel hot and swollen and painful. So, if you still have that rash - get it checked, OK? Good luck - PJH
Nenita, a rash on both breasts is almost certainly a skin issue of some kind. Have you changed laundry soap, bath gel, anything like that? Wearing a new bra that might be irritating your skin? It sounds quite uncofortable - I'd go to your family doctor and see if you can find some relief. Good luck - PJH
