So I have had this continual problem of
red spots on my skin. The spots are
small and vary in size and shape. They
do not itch or anything either. I mostly
get them on my back, neck, chest and arms.
I recal having a similar problem when I
was about 8 years old around my neck and
again when I was about 13 around my
private area. Both times I got treatment
and it want away. Recently I went to the
doctor and she said it is a yeast
infection on my skin and to use
anti-fungal cream which I do and after
awhile it goes away but keeps comming back
in a different place. Is this unusual
for a yeast infection/is it really a yeast
infection? And does anyone have any
advice on how to make it go away and stay
away/should I be on perscription meds
instead of over the counter athleats foot
cream?

Have you been keeping your bed sheets and
blankets clean? They can be the reason
why you keep getting re-infected. When I
had ringworm it was a nightmare trying to
wash all my clothes, my bed sheets,
blankets, even the couch cushions! My
dogs were the reason why I got ringworm so
everything they touched and I touched had
to get cleaned and then re-cleaned.
