What Causes Blisters While Using Econazole For Rashes Under The Breast?

I have been using econazole nitrate 1% on rash under breast. It did work a year ago. This time I am getting blisters? Or is this Dove soap I am now using. I was using a baby shower wash before which was alright. I am allergic to many antibi. Which is the wrong thing to use.

Hi.
As per your case history you may be having allergic reaction to econazole cream.
My treatment advice is -
1. Stop using econazole cream as it may worsen the condition.
2. Apply a mild antibiotic cream like fusiderm cream twice daily on it and a mild steroid cream like mometasone cream once daily.
3. Take an antihistamine medication like levocetrizine twice daily for 7-10 days.
4. You can use a clotrimazole cream instead of econazole as it is less likely to cause allergic reaction.

Thanks.
