Help with red splotchy skin on chest?

I have very thin skin. The skin on my chest always appears red and rashy looky. It gets worse if I tan. Is there anything I can do to reduce the redness or is it something I've just got to live with?

Help with red splotchy skin on chest?
I've suffered with the same thing all my life, I'm a redhead with quite sensitive skin. I once spoke with my GP and all he advised was to keep it well moisturised and use a high SPF on it when in the sun. I did use the green powder you use to reduce redness on your face when I wore low cut frocks and that used to minimise how it looked.
Reply:i would ask a doctor, maybe a dermatologist.
Reply:rub lotion on it
Reply:My Exwife had the same thing with her chest. She went to the Doctor for it and there is nothing they can do to change it. Don't worry, it doesn't make any difference in how pretty you are.
Reply:I use to have something similar to this I got it because I tanned in the tanning bed.


It is called Sun Poison it is an fungal infection of the skin.


Try rubbing real emu oil on it several times a day.You can get this from a vitamin shop that sells the real stuff not some that is manufactured.But if it does not clear up go to a doctor.


Advice you get this from the tanning bed not being cleaned normally.Which is why I stopped going to one.It took about 6 weeks to get rid of mine the emu oil is the only thing that gets rid of it for good.


The 250.00 cream the doctor gave me made it go away for only a short time.P.S. mine would be white then turn to red in heat.
Reply:It sounds like you have sensitive skin, however it is very likely you will always get redness or a rash to some extent. First try switching your products for you skin to some without perfume or for sensitive skin. Second switch to non-biological washing liquid or powder, as biological can irritate your skin. If these don't work then go to your doctor and let him have a look - you may have a skin disorder such as Rosacae, although you don't mention any face symptoms, but it needs checking out.
