Rash Under Breasts And On Arms In Spring. Is It Syphilis?
Ok, well I have this rash that comes every year starting in the spring and goes away around sept. or oct. Its in the front of my legs under breast and medial arms...I went to a dermatologist did a biopsy and they r not clear about the results. They told me maybe syphalis?? I know that they r not correct bc I ve been married for 5yrs. And before I met my husband I have had this problem and I know this is contagious. My husband is fine and my kids r great! Why would they tell me this? They say it s not accurate but to do blood work. What do u think?

Hello,
Thanks for the query,
You might have developed fungal infection.
The area of groin around breasts is very moist and is prone to develop these infections.
Treatment can be with oral antifungals as well as with topical antifungals.
Various antifungal powders like candid are availabe.
These can help reduce the moisture as well as control the infection.
Please dont use any steroid, it can worsen your condition
Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
