Nothing to worry about, hair follicles and Montgomery glands cycle with hormones.
Hello,
You are asking about a “skin spot” on your chest near your nipple. It is difficult to diagnose this spot on the basis of the photo. I suggest that you consult your physician who can perform an examination. This appears to be a reactive process of the skin on your chest wall.
It is possible that this represents recurrent infections of a hair follicle. I suggest that you wash this area four times per day with soap and water making sure that the area is cleanly rinsed.
The other likely possibility is that you have obtained new clothing including underwear to which your skin is reacting. Have you recently changed detergents or fabric softener? These are definite possibilities.
Good luck and take care.
