Answer 1

Nothing you have stated sounds like breast cancer.  You probably have a mild skin irritation/ heat rash.  Women do get hot in that area.

Wash gently, then apply a mild powder to keep your skin dry.  Preferably one with baking soda.

If it doesn't go away in 24 hrs. you should see a doctor.

Answer 2

Nothing you have described is a symptom of breast cancer.

It sounds as if it is a skin condition - perhaps a reaction to detergent.

If it doesn't clear up, see your doctor - not because you have cancer, but because you have an itchy rash.

And for future reference - breast cancer is mainly a disease of ageing; 80% of those diagnosed with breast cancer are over 50, it is rare in women under 40 and almost unheard of in under 25s.

The American Cancer Society and other cancer organisations recommend that women start breast self-examination at the age of 20; there's a reason for that.

Answer 3

you should see a doctor
