Apocrine chromhidrosis involving the areolae in a 15-year-old amateur figure skater.

Apocrine chromhidrosis is a rare disease frequently localized to the face or axillae, and rarely has been reported to occur around the breasts. We report a 15-year-old amateur figure skater who displayed localized chromhidrosis around her areolae. The most common precipitating event was exercise. She was treated topically with capsaicin cream 0.025% with a subsequent decrease in symptomatology.
