A member asked:

Small dark spots under breasts. no exposure to sun in that area. not itchy or bumpy yet. started appearing six months ago. should i be concerned?

Exam: May be hyperpigmentation, which may be hormonally induced or a low grade fungal infection, I suggest a breast exam by your GYN or PCP.
