How Can Sore Rash-like Skin On The Crease Under The Armpit Be Treated?
Hi I have only noticed about a three days ago that my armpit hurts when I lift my arm. I had a look at it and discovered that there is a rash like thing on the crease and that it has torn skin and is also dry too. It is very pink where the skin is torn. I was wondering what it is and what I can do to heal it
Your symptoms seem to be related to a fungal infection. I recommend using an antifungal cream for local application. I also recommend using antifungal application oral medication such as Fluconazole for oral treatment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
