Avatar f tn Their are a lot of things that kill fungus. The same medication woman use for yeast infection. The fungal creams used for athletes feet. Or some home remedies like apple cider vinegar. Many woman get this under their breasts but it wouldn't be on the small of your back. Fungus needs a warm moist environment. One possibility is just dry skin. Winter itch. Just try cuting down on hot showers and use a good moisturizer.
Avatar f tn Cut off the loose nail portion close to the skin without cutting into the skin. A pair of fingernail nippers or fingernail scissors work best. Then brush on pure tea tree oil a couple of times a day.
Avatar n tn Do I need to be worried every time I get a cut out in public? Yesterday i was in our office trying to make jokes to everyone...when i got home that i had dried blood in my fingernail.. and i have a wound near my fingernail. Do i need to be concern in this matter?
Avatar m tn What do the lines look like and are they colored? If you have fingernail fungus the topicals don't work. You would have to take a prescription oral drug (Lamisil) for three months then it kills the nail. I just went through this with my toe nail. The nail is usually yellowish.
Avatar m tn He prescribed a urea nail stick to aid with the fungus like matter under the fingernail. I keep it trimmed back to allow for new nail growth, but it gets to a certain point and develops this gross looking end to it. Any idea why it's taking so long for the nail to regenerate, or is this an indication of a possible underlying cause?

She has had IV antibiotics twice as well as antibiotic and antifungal pills, and it was non-responsive to the drugs. Tested negative for MRSA. Finger hurts and is pinkish-red. It is dry with no discharge.

565779 tn?1216513164 five years ago, now I have a foot fungus and toe/fingernail fungus. I have also been finding these tiny black things, the size of a pinhead all over my skin, some are even going into my fingernails, as well as my skin. Is this another type of fungus, or do I have some strange bug inside of me? Also does anyone notice a gross odor from the nail fungus? Are people with Hep. C prone to fungi infections?
Avatar n tn Fungal infection generally responds to medications but it takes a long time before it completely cures. It is important to continue with the treatment 2 weeks even if it has already cleared up to be sure that the offending organisms is gone. Keep the area clean and dry. Take care and keep us posted.
Avatar m tn A brown or black dot or streak under a toenail or fingernail could be a blood clot, fungus infection, or possibly a skin cancer. Hence get it examined under a dermatoscope from a dermatologist. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps.

Avatar m tn Hi I just want to know what can cause some or all of these combined symptoms, Hair thinning, lost of appetite, a few dark toenails but not all of them, 1 fingernail half light pink half light brown with vertical lines no ridges, wart on ball of both feet and lately some lost of taste (I'm thinking due to thin white film on tongue) I was a Severe smoker until recently when I stopped.

Avatar m tn s kind of like a clean turpentine smell, but I use it all the time. It even cures nail fungus if you use it every day for a few months.
Avatar n tn Don't do it. Simply, don't. Don't harm yourself. Talk to your hepatologist and listen to his or her advice. Don't turn yourself into a guinea pig trying unconventional "cures" - they usually are dangerous, and are not cures at all. If you can - wait for newer drugs to be released and treat with them, if you can't wait - go with the current treatment.
Avatar f tn Is he treating a fungus? If so, you could try switching to tea tree oil. It treats fungal and bacterial infections. If the problem is foot odor, there is another treatment that is free and easy, but you might think it's icky. You urinate on your feet in the shower. It cures foot odor. You can still rinse them off after.
Avatar n tn Is the fungus on a certain part of your body? Are you seeing a doctor about the fungus? Is the medication prescribed? You need to let your doctor know that the medication isn't working- if you are under the care of a doctor. It's always important they know how a patient is responding to treatment. If you are not under the care of a doctor, be sure to find one and go see them for a plan for how to deal with this fungus.
Avatar n tn m sure they gave you treatment for it. If you are just wondering if perhaps this is the cause of your dry mouth - see your provider for an exam and testing. Diagnosing an oral fungal infection is pretty easy in the office.
Avatar m tn They look whitish and when I scrape them off with a paper towel or my fingernail it is not red or bleeding underneath. It feels like skin when I scrape it out and touch it with my fingers. Does this sound like thrush? Does thrush feel like skin when touched? My mouth has been excessively dry for the past year, I have to sip water constantly and chew sugar free gum. Could it just be caused by the dry mouth? I tested negative for HIV a year ago on rapid tests.
Avatar m tn if someone has truly discovered a cure for pancreatic cancer, that person would be rich by now, and the news about the treatment would certainly make it to the front page of leading newspapers. But this has not yet happened, precisely because no satisfactory treatment for the advanced stages of this disease has yet been found.
