Suggest Remedy For Painful Rash Under Both Underarms
HELLO PLEASE HELP, I DEVELOPED A RASH UNDER BOTH UNDERARMS ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO, ITS BEEN EXTREMELY PAINFUL AND UNCOMFORTABLE AND I WENT TO SEE DR , AND HE SAID IT WAS FUNGUS AND TO APPLY ANTIFUNGAL CREAM. HE WANTED ME TO GET BLOODWORK DONE TO MAKE SURE MY LIVER WAS HEALTHY SO HE COULD PRESCRIBE PILLS FOR RASH. IVE APPLIED, ANTIFUNGAL CREAM, BUT ITS NOT GETTING BETTER. I DONT SHAVE OR SHARE RAZORS OR USE GYMS, SO I HAVE NO IDEA HOW THIS HAPPENED. IVE NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS BEFORE. WHAT HOME REMEDY WILL HELP UNTIL MY BLOOD WORK COMES BACK IN 2 WEEKS.

Hi,
It may be sort of allergy complicated with secondary bacterial infection. Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. I would recommend you to apply antibiotic cream and to take a course of antibiotic and anti inflammatory drugs. Avoid deodorant spray, soap application... etc.
Hope this helps.
