Avatar f tn I also have a white spot about the size of a dime in one of my armpits which I noticed a couple years ago but may have had longer. I just recently noticed two white spots both about the size of a dime around my anus but I may of also had them longer. I am freaking out and scared I may have vitiligo. I have no known family history of vitiligo and am scared to see a doctor because of the location of my white spots. Am I in the early stages of Vitiligo.
Avatar f tn Hello, From the symptoms it looks like fungal nail infection or trauma skin. An infection of nail fungus occurs when fungi infect one or more of your nails. Nail fungus can be difficult to treat, and repeated infections are common. Over-the-counter antifungal nail creams and ointments are available, but they aren't very effective. You need to get a KOH examination and fungal culture of the nail scrapings done and then oral antifungals prescribed.
Avatar n tn It appears as though both of my big toes have a new nail growing in underneath the old nail. The old Nail is raised up quite a bit compared to the new growth, which is about 1/4". I also can see a line on both nails that appears to be where the new nail is at, and that is about 75% to the end of my toe. The new nail looks totally fine. I'm 25 years old. None of my other toenails are affected. No pain or other symptoms of any kind.
Avatar n tn I have been to the doctors and he told me I have a skin fungus and to us Selson Shampoo, I have used the shampoo for a month every day, now I use it once a week for about 5-10 mins drying on my skin. The white spots don't seem to be going at all, now I have a bit of a tan they seem to be worse than ever. Do they ever go or even fade a little, I don't want to waste the doctors time again or do I need to get something else a little stronger. Please help.
Avatar f tn I unexpectedly got nail fungus last year, and I treated it with topical tea tree oil and I took Dr Mercola's Probiotic Packs Daily for bout 2 monts, it cleared it up and they have been fine since.
Avatar n tn I've been treating my toenail fungus, but as I treat it… it's getting white and really dry, it has lines on the toe nails too. Is that because of the medication I'm putting on my toenails?
Avatar f tn I have white spots in my upper arm i ont know what is the reason for it can u please tell me what it is and what i should do for it
Avatar f tn Tinea versicolor is caused by a fungus that lives in the skin of almost all adults. Factors that can cause the fungus to become more visible include high humidity and immune or hormone abnormalities.Treatment involves topical and oral antifungal medicines. Second possibility is of vitiligo. It is a pigmentation disorder in which melanocytes (the cells that make pigment) in the skin are destroyed. As a result, white patches appear on the skin in different parts of the body.
Avatar n tn what would cause white spots on skin and what is it i noticed it about 2yrs ago and i never did before there is one on my chest and on my back it dont hurt or bother me in any way and it is as flat as my skin?
Avatar m tn Carefully trim any loose nail portions off as they grow, including any spots with nail separation. Cutting off the loose nail and then doing the oil is key to curing this.
768221 tn?1242995694 About a year ago, I started getting these white spots on my shoulders, then it spread to my back, neck, chest and stomach. They fade as my tan fades but as soon as I go out into the sun they come back. Sometimes they itch, sometimes they don't. Is there anything I can do to make them go away for good? I have never had this before.
Avatar n tn Presuming it is actually a fungus, there is a problem because it is under the nail. Outside, on the skin for instance, you would just use Vick's-Vapo-Rub (believe it or not). Getting under the nail is a problem. There are systemic anti-fungals, but my husband did not have much luck with that. He kept painting the nails and pushing stuff under (as far as he could). I think it is pretty well gone now, but it took a long, long time.
Avatar n tn I have red spots on head of my penis. thought it was a fungus, but nothing helps.
Avatar f tn The problem is that I think I have a nail fungus on the majority of my toenails. My toenails have turned white on the corners. They just look different to me. So I wonder what caused it and the only thing I can attribute it to is the nail polish I used all summer. So now I am too scared to paint my fingernails because I don't want it to happen to my fingernails! I have been using Vick's Vaporub and vinegar. From everything I have read, a cure for nail fungus is pretty much impossible...
Avatar f tn I am not a regular drinker, but when I take 2 or 3 beers next day I get weird symptoms. My nails start hurting, getting red spots & fungus growth. When I don’t drink for few days everything disappeared.
565779 tn?1216513164 I have foot fungus and nail fungus, now I have tiny black spots on my skin and brown spots everywhere. Is it possible for the fungus to go into your blood stream and effect your entire body? Thanks for the help!
Avatar n tn From what I have read the spots are due to damage to the nail, like bumping the nail. They only disappear when the nail grows. Although, don't know if we are referring to the same type of spots.
Avatar n tn I get white spots in my fingernails. Its from hitting your nail on something. I think its like a "nail bruise". Do you think this could be it?
Avatar m tn the fungus now has a great area to thrive. cut all the free nail back. apply Lamisil cream (over the counter) to the area daily. if you don't see improvement, see your podiatrist.
Avatar m tn Over the last 5 years, i have developed white patchy spots on my upper left part of the body. They are not itchy but am worried as i cant remove my shirt in front of people.
483814 tn?1214311480 It has definitely helped me with the recurring nail fungus, which was extremely irritating, especially as a woman, because you contaminate your nail polish over and over.
569705 tn?1217017492 gave me pamphlets on hand eczema and the paper said that some eczema is associated with a fungus that also affects the soles of your feet. When I intially went to the dr my feet where already infected. The nails on my hands are also discolored and grow in what I can only describe has "ripples" and crumble off. I have been seeing this dr since January and am not happy with my progress.
