Bug bites? on bottom of breast

I have what looks like several bug bites on the under of my left breast. They have been there for 4 days now and seem like they are spreading slowly. At first I thought nothing of it and put some cream on it to heal it. I now have pain in my left breast (not really painful) but when I'm led down or sat I can feel it there. I started looking online and came across people saying they've had what look like bug bites on their breast and have been to drs who have gave then antibiotics then months down the line they have been diagnosed with ibc...

I've called my drs and sent them a pic and they have not diagnosed me with anything.. just advised me to use aveeno cream... stating they don't know what it is. They did say it doesnt look like shingles as shingles are close together.

Many thanks

  • Hello Jade and welcome to the forum.

    It's good you've got in touch with your doctor about this although I'm sorry they haven't been able to say what this is. Give the Aveeno cream a go and if it doesn't have any impact, get back in touch with them as they may then call you in for a face to face appointment to have a look at the bites/marks in more detail.

    Fingers crossed the cream works and the bites/marks are no cause for concern.

    All the best,
