Posts Tagged ‘breast fungus’
A fungus under the breast is more common than reported and is prevalent in women with large busts who live in hot and humid (tropical) climates. The fungal infection arises due to a combination of factors and is referred to as submammary candidiasis. These infections are often caused by yeast-like fungi (candida) or mold-like fungi (dermatophytes or skin fungus referred to as tinea infections), although a breast fungus is usually a result of a candida infection.
