Hello, I have a slight rash on my breast which is at the top of my breast and stops at the nipple.  It gets very itchy after a hot shower.  I have had it for 3 months or so.  It is now a browny patch and only flares up after showers.  Should I be worried
Hello. Thank you for writing to USI will keep a possibility of a superficial fungal infection, either Satyriasis tricolor which is due to a yeast called Malaysia fur fur Or else it could be Tina corporal which is due to dermatophytes. A KOH preparation made by scraping a small amount of scale from the surface would be confirmatory in both of these. Treatment is with topical antifungals like Ketoconazole, ketoconazole, fluconazole available either in a cream or lotion. Oral antifungals may also be started after the diagnosis is confirmed to be of fungal etiology. I suggest you to visit a dermatologist in your region for a confirmatory diagnosis as well as appropriate treatment. An oral antihistamine e.g. cetirizine 10 mg once daily will provide symptomatic relief from itching. Regards
