Dear anaili: Skin on the breast is like skin anywhere else on the body and is subject to a variety of abnormalities. There are many possible explanations for skin discoloration including dry skin and irritation. Without examination, we cannot speculate on what your brown spots may be. If you are concerned, you should make an appointment to see your doctor.
