Can any one tell me the name of a breastfeeding rash?I have a 1 month old and have been breastfeeding since he was born. On Halloween night,I got a fever that lasted for 2 days, Then I developed a skin rash starting at my breasts and began spreading. Now I am covered with it. I can't figure out what it is and have read somewhere that there is a rash associated with breastfeeding and wondered if this could be related. Do you know what this rash is called so that I could look up more info. on it? I have already seen 2 doctors and their diagnosis are conflicting. I really don't know much about nursing related things. Thanks!
Below are two images of the rash that I have. They look simaler to chickenpox, though niether of my doctors think it is that. My primary thinks that it is a staff infection, and my gynacologists says that it may be scabies. I am so confused.

Get the facts on the chickenpox vaccine, treatment, causes (varicella zoster virus, VZV), symptoms and signs (itchy, red rash).
