I have a rash on my left breast and across the lower part of my rib bone. I have tried several creams and powders to get rid of it with no success. It is not contagious as I know of cuz I breast feed my 8 month old daughter and she does not have it. I have had this for approx 3 months now. It is only on my left side. Any suggestions? I have tried betamethasone cream, athletes foot , nystatin powder....it does not hurt or itchiness with it.
Hello, Thanks for the query. Betamethasone is a strong steroid. It is not advisable to use it on regular basis. You might have developed fungal infection. Use of steroid may aggravate it. Please get a KOH mount done, This can confirm the fungal etiology. A biopsy may even be required. Treatment can be with oral antifungals as well as with topical antifungals. Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis. Let me know if you have any other doubt.
