I have an itchy left breast and its color has also turned dark brown in the nipple area. It is dry and flaky sometimes. I am also suffering from ringworm infections in my buttock and inner thigh area. I also then had the ringworm infect in between the breast area, is my nipple area also having similar infection? What should be done?

1.nipple scaling and dryness can be due to eczema- kindly use adequate moisturisers like nivea or vaseline moisturisers ,u can use almond butter base also 3 times a day 2 ring worm is unlikely to happen in nipple for ring worm if it is confirmed infection then anti fungal cream and tablets should be used. I would prefer to see the ring worm pictures to confirm if it so we will start on medications. Regards.
