Hidradenitis?: If your breasts are large and/or you're overweight, this just be a hygiene issue, with bacterial overgrowth due to continuous moisture from sweat. If so, frequent bathing or washing (2-3 times a day) and talcum powder or cornstarch to keep the area dry might help. Or you might have hidradenitis suppurativa, a chronic non-infectious inflammatory condition. Check it out with your doctor.
