A member asked:

I have fungus in my back in the front of my breast i need help?

Lamisil (terbinafine): I suggest that you try an over the counter yeast cream like lamisil (terbinafine) (terbenafine). Use a thin layer twice a day. It may take a week or two to clear up. If not, it may not be yeast. See your doctor to make sure of the diagnosis if this does not clear it up.
