Have Been Treated For A Rash On Buttocks, Pimples, Yeast Infection, Redness. What Is The Cause?
I have been treated for a rash on my bum that broke out into pimples everywhere thought he said foliculitice or sounds like that. After the pimples went away I have this itchy line that feels bumpy and is red. After doing some reading some people talk about bum yeast infection, could this be the causes. My wife just battled a vaginal yeast infection recently and may be I gave it to her after scratching my self and touching her.
