I have a rash under my breast.I tried cornstarch as well as diluted vinegar to no avail. What is the best over the counter medication to use. I have large breasts and assume its from perspiring when working in my garden. I have to get a mammogram next week. Help !

Hi...

Do not worry. It is just an inframammary intertrigo. Kindly consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment.

You may follow...

- antihistaminics
- antibiotic
- oral steroid in tapering dose
- apply mild cream containing steroid,antifungal and antibiotic
- keep area dry

Thanks.
