Chest Infection and skin itching.
I had an infection on both of the nipples which got worse overtime. I consulted with the doctor and they gave me ointments and moisturizer which helped treat it. However, I cannot use various soaps after that and I am having skin dryness problems including itching and redness.
I still to this day suffer from skin itching and redness on the nipples if used any other soaps or don't moisturise.
Do I need any further treatment or will it be like this for the rest of my life?
