A member asked:
My upper chest skin is very irritated to the point that soft clothing rubbing against it is painful. what medicines can i use to alleviate the pain?

Dermatologist: I recommend that you consult a dermatologist for diagnosis and treatment of the chest wall irritation or rash, if there is an actual eruption. Without a specific diagnosis it's not possible to outline a treatment plan for you. Otherwise you could simply apply a soothing lotion containing aloe Vera.
