What Does The Yeast Fungal Infection Under Right Breast That Is Enlarging The Area And Bleeding Mean ?

Hi, I have been told by an associate of my cancer doctor that I have yeast fungal infection under by right breast. I was placed on two antiobotics plus nystop powder 100,000 u/gm top powder to be used twice per day. It was red and a small area when I saw her last Friday. I have been doing as she said and it has started spreading with small bumps now appearing thus enlarging the area. (My doctor is out of town - and we have minus 11 temperature here (-minus 50 degree wind chill - we can not go out due to snow, temperature, etc) When I now wash the area it is now bleeding. Do I need to stop this med until I am able to see my doctor who is due back later this week? Please adsvise.

Hi,
thanks for writing to HCM,
yes you should stop that powder and dress the area using antiseptics like detol, savlon or betadine and show to your doctor when she comes back...its look slike the powder is reacting with it adversely...
