Breast itchiness and raised red spots (Photo)

Question

I’ve had these raised red spots for the past couple years. They come and go. But recently my breast has become extremely itchy and can’t get it to go away. Help!

Gianfranco Frojo, MD · Answer

I would go see a board-certified plastic surgeon (with plastic surgery residency and aesthetic fellowship training) for a consultation. Alternatively, you can also see a dermatologist to ensure that this is not some other issue related to the skin. Sorry I cannot provide further guidance, but providing medical advice without a physical exam is quite challenging. Best of luck!

Dear itsneigh,
I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what is wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

Thanks for your question!
 My suggestion is to schedule an appointment with a dermatologist to find out what is causing this rash. 
Best wishes!

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

I encourage you to visit with a dermatologist for diagnosis and treatment.  It may be unrelated to breast implants.  Possible irritants are fragrance, soap, and detergent.

You appear to have hypertrophic scarring which probably can be helped with steroid injections. Please go back to your surgeon.

I suggest you follow up with your primary care doctor, or perhaps a dermatologist.
It’s difficult to give you a quality assessment, based on the information presented.
Best,
