Ok, it's a breast issue problem. Underneath my left breast the skin has becoming sore all week to the point where it is splitting.
If I run my fingers down from betweenboth breasts and press on the breast slightly it has started to hurt. Not n gonising pIn but enough to be uncomfortable. The right side is ok. I did have. Rash there a few weeks go but that cleared up.

For the last few days it has been more comfortable to not wear a bra but that I still not always going to be practical. I have put some Savlon on the rash !

Any ideas!
As I said I'll go to the doctors this week to get it checked out.

You could try something for nappy rash - sudocrem or metanium but I think you need to get it checked out.

Thrush? Have you tried an anti-fungal cream?

You need thrush cream. Canestan or Lamisil.

For the last few days I have been using Clotimozle. I used savlon as it's on my dresser and nearest to hand. I find it soothingly. It's the pain when I press gently on the bone that's is niggling me.

What % is the thrush cream? You’ll probably need the 2% which is only available on prescription. In the mean time try to keep it clean, pat it dry. No talc! I haven’t had it but looked after patients with it, it looks really sore, hope it gets better soon.

notacooldad · 28/09/2019 08:58

The cream I'm using is 1%.
I'm very sore this morning and the rash is spreading
I took a picture last night but the wound is larger today!!
It's going to be a no bra and l baggy t shirt day I think!!

I had that it is a fungal infection. You need to make sure you dry the area thoroughly. Go said use the hairdryer and then he gave me cream (I had to keep it in the fridge lol). Now I put some lush dusting powder on (I don’t use talc due to the cancer risk).

Definitely fungal infection. Keep it clean and dry and ask pharmacist for some daktarin cream.

Hope it's better soon

I had this once and the pharmacist gave me cream for athletes foot. Got rid of it really quickly.

notacooldad · 28/09/2019 14:56

Thank you for all your advice everyone!
I haven't been out to get a stronger cream but the one im currently using is in the fridge!
I'd never heard of the tip of using the hairdryer! Great idea!
