Rash not healing

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
Argh, this has not been fun! DS raked his teeth on my areola a few weeks ago- no big deal, small wounds- but then they started to itch after a day or two and I found myself unconsciously scratching . Unfortunately they turned into sores that will.not.heal. Neither of us have any signs of thrush but I have tried to treat with anti-fungal, antibiotics (topical) and now just GSE. I am trying to keep the area dry and clean but I just don't have the luxury to be topless all day. They don't seem infected, just like wounds that can't scab over and heal probably due to the moist environment.

Also, the skin on my breasts- not nipples- is itchy!!! I haven't experienced any pain or other problems though. Neither or us has any diseases.

Please please please any suggestions?

Bump.

Anyone? It has now been over a month and I have only had marginal success with different treatments. DS still has no symptoms.
