Question: I have cleavage discoloration due to fungus I had 2 years ago. Is there away to get rid of the discoloration?
Brief Answer:
Application of clotrimazole lotion should help.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I understand your concerns. If it is due to a fungus, application of clotrimazole lotion topically should help. But it would perhaps be a good idea to upload an image. It would enable me to comment on the possible cause.

I already know the reason why the fungus came. I need other suggestions on antifungal cream to use.
Brief Answer:
Miconazole cream can be used.
Detailed Answer:
Antifungal creams like miconazole or clotrimazole may be used. To be more specific it is important to identify what sort of fungus it is.

Ok, i also uploaded a photo.
Brief Answer:
Topical steroids would help. Do not use them for long.
Detailed Answer:
Sorry for the requirement of the awkward photo. I have gone through it. I feel that you need to apply some steroid like hydrocortisone topically alongwith some antifungal like miconazole. However, you should not use it for long and should remain under the follow up of a dermatologist.
