Fungal Infection

Question

Fungal Infection

Asked for Male, 31 Years

I've been suffering from a fungal infection for quite a while now. I had shown it to a physician close to where I live and he prescribed me some medicines of which I've taken 3 courses already. By the end of the 2nd course the infection almost disappeared but then it came back with a vengeance and now I don't know how to get rid of it.

Please visit a dermatologist.Because sometimes steroid creams are prescribed for fungal infections by many general physicians and they do get temporary relief from the infection but once it is stopped it keeps coming back. Fungal infections need to be treated with anti-fungals only.It takes time but will go ff completely. Also check your random blood sugar levels
