    Comment:
    I am diabetic and develop yeast infections more frequently than most. Diflucan which is used for treatment has caused a very dark (black) circle around my lower lip and chin. The reaction involves my skin first looking like it has been burned then blisters form. The blisters break the tissue weeps and the skin slough off leaving very raw tissue susceptible to infection (which I get most often). ... Show Full Comment
