Please help. i'm so itchy and miserable.. I have, what I'm pretty sure is a yeast rash on my back. it's right around my bra line, also where my swimming suit sits. But i can't reach it to put anything on it! I managed to put some coconut oil on part of it, but not much.

Any ideas? Do I need to go to the doctor for some diflucan or something?

And no, i don't have anyone who can rub anything on my back.

Can u go braless for a day or two to see how it feels?

Maybe having your bra dry in the sun to try and kill any yeast that may be in it?

I can't go braless. School starts tomorrow and i'm not the kind that go out with out a bra. :( I might be able to lay my bras out in the sun, as long as the neighbor doesn't go in the back yards. lol.

Wrap a washcloth around a hairbrush (or spatula, or other handled implement). Secure with rubber bands. Slather aloe on the washcloth, then reach up over your shoulder to apply to your back.

It's not perfect, but hopefully it will get you through in the moment. :pray4
