Yeast: Without seeing it, no one can be certain. It sounds like a monilial rash or non vaginal yeast infection. I would see your doctor, but if you can't you can try some lotrimin (clotrimazole) af and see if it helps. Again though rashes can be a variety of things, this is only a guess based on your description.

Your initial: Description sounds like an inflammation of skin hair follicles or a friction rash or, infrequently a contact type dermatitis (doubt), the fact that it stings suggests that there is some superficial skin breakdown. If the black "dots" brush or wash off easily and you wore a black bra it is just fibers from the bra. Wouldn't know what else would cause that without seeing.
