i am 24 with no prior health issues except being overweight. i also deal with depression and anxiety. the last time i had a breast exam was in 2020 and all my tests come back fine. i was on prednisone back in october for an skin allergic reaction i had and took two rounds. not for sure if the changes in texture related to it getting cold or dry skin or what. ive been dealing with this since maybe last november or december id really like some insight or advice. image

    Seeing a dermatologist may be a good idea.It looks like a type of dry skin that can cause a build up of skin scales. keep moisturising as much as possible but I,m sure a dermatologist would be able to give you a better idea of what is going on.

    Sometimes having dry, scaly and itchy skin of the breast can be due to Eczema. Get yourself checked to a dermatologist and if everything comes out fine then you can go for further check ups.
