Blisters On The Chest And Stomach. Tried Steroids. Got Better By Using A Vaginal Yeast Infection Pill. Recurring

I have had a rash that started 3 mos., ago, that were small blisters on my back, chest and stomach. Went to urgent care and was given steroids. Did not go away, went to er and had low potassium and gave me topical steroid cream. Still not go away, went to my dr., and thought it was a fungis rash. Got a little better by taking a vaginal yeast infection pill once a week for 4 weeks. Started to go away and won't seem to go away, Help!!!!!

Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hello,
Thanks for the query,

If there was a response to anti fungal,

probably you have an yeast infection.

Treatment might need to be continued for a longer period.

Better get a culture and sensitivity test done from the blister fluid.

This will confirm the diagnosis.

Let me know if you have any other doubts.

Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.
