always held my baby on that side, he would drool on the cloth diaper, which
would get my shirt, bra strap, and neck/shoulder area wet. >>
Last summer -- the summer of the Chicowgo Cows, I got a little spot just
below my knee which itched dreadfully. And I scratched. And then applied
some hydrocortisone. It got worse -- it spread. And itched some more. By
this time it is red, flaky, and about the size of a quarter (started out
about the size of a half pencil eraser). My dh, the pharmacist said, "I
think it's yeast, and cortisone can make it worse." Yeah riiiight -- was my
reply. Yeast on my KNEE? No baby drool there. No baby. And I realize that
you can get yeast from other activities -- but none involved my knee -- if
you get my drift here. But, being a dutiful wife, and tired of the itch, I
tried stopped the cortisone and started Lotrimin. Cleared up immediately.
Wish I had gotten a picture.
