What is this rash under my breast?
I have a rash underneath my right breast. It is a small patch of raised bumps right on my bra line. I want to believe it's just a heat rash but I know that breast rashes can be early signs of IBC so I'm worried! It's slightly burning, hot to the touch and not particularly itchy. It popped up after a long walk in the heat yesterday and hasn't changed much since then though I've been treating it with compresses and cortisone. Please help!

It does sound like heat rash if it appeared after a long walk in the heat- but it doesn't hurt at all to get it checked out. Especially if the rash is hot to the touch, have a doctor just check in.
