So about 3 weeks ago, me and my boyfriend had sex. It was quite painful for me and after that i felt burning 'down there'.
The next few days it was incredibly itchy, but my period came so i couldn't go to the hospital.
After my period, i still had that problem down there, it just wasn't as itchy as before. I tried a few off the counter medications but none seemed to work. I went to the hospital and i was told it was a fungus.
Hello, I was told around late September that, after a biopsy and several different treatments that isn't work that I had folliculitis with yeast. I was wondering how long should it take to get rid of this rash as it still remains to this day but it is certainly not as bad as it once was. Also I have been dealing with flaky white skin in my penis when erect? What could cause this?
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. 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.
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?
the rash still looks the same (light brown) Last week, i went to another dermatologist for a second opinion. 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?
My primary physician ordered blood tests and everything came as negative and he said it might be a yeast type of infection. But when i went to another doctor after couple days since the ulcers are spreading on penis head and getting worse, the other doctor said it is herpes by just looking at it and did not do any tests and prescribed valtrex for 7 days. I took it for 7 days and all the blisters healed on penis head, but a new rash came on the outer skin of penis head which is burning a lot.
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.

That yours responds to ciclopirox (Loprox) favors yeast as the cause, but not necessarily. Perhaps any moisturizing cream plus local hygiene -- foreskin retraction and washing -- would be equally effective.
To be certain there isn't a separate problem causing the apparent irritation/inflammation of your meatus (urethral opening), talk with your doctor about a urine or urethral swab test for gonorrhea and chlamydia, if not done before now. But I expect these would be negative.

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.

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.

Most treatments are either systemic antifungal medications such as terbinafine and itraconazole, or topical such as nail paints containing ciclopirox or amorolfine. There is also evidence for combining systemic and topical treatments for effective results.
A 2002 study compared the efficacy and safety of terbinafine in comparison with placebo, itraconazole and griseofulvin in treating fungal infections of the nails.

I was too embarrased to tell of the alcohol incident so i just said i was under anxiety and stress. The doctor gave me ketoconazole foam, 2% and a rx for Ciclopirox shampoo. When i apply the foam it burns a bit but the shampoo is a bit better. What i would like to know is why did she do a fungal skin culture? And your suggestion on what the outcome might be. Also i been suffering from anxiety and stress. Im even anxious of the results i have to go back in 3 weeks.

By the way, I'm using clotrimazole, but I'll try using Ciclopirox or some shampoos.
