Hello, everyone.
I have had a rash on my chin (see picture) for about 5 months now. It started out on the right side of my chin. It would come and go randomly without treatment. About a year ago I had some seborrheic dermatitis around my nose and the derm prescribed me Ertaczo (an anti-fungal). That cleared up the rash right away. I went to my primary physician and showed him the rash on my chin mentioning that it looked similar to the rash I originally had around my nose.
ok so i went to the doctor a few month ago to get these brown spots i have on my stomach and near the underarms. like right under where you grow your armpit hair and above it also. when i went to the doctors they told me that they knew what it was but they couldn't pull up a picture for me. i kinda forgot what she said it was called but then she gave me a prescription for it. it's ciclopirox cream 0.77% .i've been using it ever since i got it but i just noticed that it got worser.
He told me he didnt see any signs of fungus or yeast, but gave me an antifungal anyways, and told me I have Intertrigo. I am using zeasorb AF powder along with a sparing amount of ciclopirox olamine 0.77% cream The rash has lightened a little, but isnt really "healing" Has anyone ever had a stubborn case of Intertrigo? I am not obese and have never had any problem like this before in my life.
That was the first sign I have Celiac disease.
To treat the problem immediately, avoid scratching because it scars the scalp and hair won't grow. Try Nizoral shampoo to get the skin unclogged and any scales off. Get tested for Celiac disease. You can use any of these to avoid scratching: hydrocortizone 1% cream (I hate the liquid "lotions" that the doctors love), Benadryl gel (very cooling) or even aloe vera gel. Just don't scratch. Stop eating sugary foods and drinks.
Prior the the potential exposure, I was prescribed a topical nail fungus medication (ClearNails Pro) that is fat soluble and claims to penetrate to the nail bed. This medication contains a drug called ciclopirox which was recently discovered to kill hiv infected cells in vitro. The percentage of ciclopirox is 6 percent.
1. Since my fungal medication is fat soluble and contains ciclopirox, will it enter the blood stream in enough concentration to affect the accuracy of an hiv antibody test?
I visited my doctor last Monday and he thought it was fungal and prescribed Ciclopirox Olamine Cream 0.77% anti-fungal and 7 x Fluconazole 200mg tablets antibiotic, one per day for seven days. Nothing affected the rashes visibly or stopped it from spreading. Today I went to a friend's hospital laboratory and they took two skin KOH prep skin scrapping done. Samples were obtained from my foot and upper right arm, result was NO yeast and NO fungal elements were detected.
Treatment is by shaving the affected area. Benzoyl peroxide gel, antibacterial washes and antiperspirants may also be helpful.
Topical clindamycin is helpful in refractory or extensive cases. Additional recommended agents include naftifine hydrochloride cream (1%), which has been used for its combined antifungal and antibacterial actions.
Piedra is an asymptomatic superficial fungal infection of the hair shaft.
88 but before 2 days it was 0.77 and at that i missed my period for only one day.. now i missed my period about 10 days and i did urine pregnancy test which also comes to negative but i m feeling pain as well as i m feeling like fainting, vomiting and also white fluid is dicharging from my vagina. Are these symptoms of pregnancy? Will i be pregnant? What should i do i am very tens and confuse...
They did not seem to have any clue about the test, but ordered it for me anyhow. I got the call today and the test was a 0.77 negative so it didn't even have to be reflexed to inhibition for verification. I am confused although happy to hear negative. At first they claimed it was a new infection and now they are claiming it's an old one and advised me to retest again in 1-2 months. This is crazy!
So should I get the western Blot then for confirmation in a month or two?
In the validation set, HA was accurate in predicting significant fibrosis, severe fibrosis, and cirrhosis with AUCs of 0.73, 0.77, and 0.97, respectively. Moreover, accurate HA level cut-offs were defined for predicting significant fibrosis, severe fibrosis, and cirrhosis. Thus, the study supports that HA level may be clinically useful as a non-invasive marker for liver fibrosis and/or cirrhosis.

Now my forehead and right side of my cheek. I purchased T-gel shampoo for my itchy scalp and using the calamine lotion but now it hurts to put on clothes. Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? I purchased a few OTC creams for itch but they burned so I threw them out. Not sure what else to do?
The scalp should be washed with a mild normal shampoo as often as desired. Antidandruff shampoos containing antifungal agents such as ketoconazole or ciclopirox are sometimes helpful. Apart from that you need topical and oral antibiotics, antihistamines, oral steroids and topical tretinoin.
My sincere advice is to get it examined from a dermatologist.

The PA did not do a free 3, even after I specifically ask for it. The results are total T3 0.96, free T4 0.77, and TSH 3.58. I noticed that the ranges are different than what my lab listed. Any help would be great.
