Bombay is a hot humid place. And we all have a very hectic lifestyle too. Fungal infections increase in summer. But they can be treated and cleared provided every individual takes proper adequate treatment. Application of steroid based combinations, over the counter remedies only add to the problem and make it more difficult to clear. Please consult a dermatologist and take proper treatment. regularly.Dr.Jolly Shah Kapadia DNB Dermatologist Skin Nurture Clinics Mumbai.
