Yeast Infection Under Boob :(

jenn_reeder

So I'm pretty sure I have a yeast infection under my left boob.  It is smelly, rashy, and burns like crap! 

 I work in a lab so I set up a culture today and I have a dr's appt. tomorrow morning. 

 Anyone else have this very uncomfortable problem?  Any home remedies to get me through the rest of the night?

Yep, not fun indeed.  Apparently sweaty, overgrown boobs in hot Texas heat = not good.

I've been trying to wash them when I get home from work, but the left one is having some problems.

I had a yeast infection on my tongue a few years back. It was horrible, my tounge swelled up and I could not talk.

Yes, I have had one both under my boob and in between my legs (on both sides) in my groin (not my vag).  Honestly, both can be a little tricky to treat, but hopefully the doc will come up with a solution for you.  Typically powders work better than creams.

I guess this is what I had.. under BOTH boobs. And at night, they would itch and without knowing it, I would scratch in my sleep so much that the skin was peeling and flame red. I got antifungal cream and Anti-Monkey Butt (yes, that's its name) powder and it's cleared right up. Both of those were suggested to me by Bumpies!

You can try a little Monistat cream on it.

Yup! Vagisil works great in the mean time.
