Have Rashes Near Areola. Looks Like Brown Patches On Breast. Tested Negative For Cancer. What Can It Possibly Be?
Hi HCM, can a dermatologist answer this question? I had rashes near my left areola 4 years ago, but it seemed that whenever i use bar soap/wear bra too long , it will reoccur again. It would look like brown patches on my breast, and it will heal then come back again. I had it tested before for cancer but no malignant cells found. What can it possibly be?
hi i think it is only tinea versicolor.it is a fungal infection caused by drematophyte species like malassezia furfur.it can be present wherever there is excessive sweat is present.it can be cured by flucanazole 150 mg weekly once for four weeks and application of candid tv shampoo 15 min before bath and nizral ointment in the night,recurrences are common in this condition
