Common Questions and Answers about Diflucan and skin rash

diflucan

Avatar f tn I went thru this painful bleeding rash on my arms and legs for years..ugh its just awful. Went to every skin Dr and they were stumped..well I just had thyroid surgery to remmove toxic nodule and half my thyroid...guess what? The rash is finally clearing up all by it self now! Yaaaaay! Tell you Dr about it and insist you get your thyroid treated..myself I recomend the surgery over the radiation. A litter more painful but much safer esp for those of us with thyroid rash!
Avatar n tn the diflucan has helped immensely and cleared it up completely. the HSV culture hasn't come backk yet though. Since diflucan worked, can I rule out herpes?
18966962 tn?1472601945 I do not believe it is herpes as I have had no sores, just red skin which gets really lumpy and red after ejaculation. starting 1 week after symptoms 1. Apply Lotrimin ultra to area twice a day 2. 1 week later 1 150 mg diflucan (looked slightly better afterwards but didnt go away) 3. 3 days after diflucan- doxyclycline 100 mg for 1 week for possible bacteria infections 4. 1 week after After doxycycline- 150 mg Diflucan which no noticeable results 5.
Avatar f tn ve had for 2 months (this is my 3rd antibiotic in the last 2 months) and I have developed a very red rash starting right below the opening of my vagina, the skin beside it(kinda the start of my ver inner butt cheek), all the way up to my anus. The rash is itchy and sore (esp on my anus). It looks like a severe diaper rash. I've seen this type of rash on a friends child who had an external yeast infection. Is this possible that this is what I have?
Avatar m tn Also I have pain when I ejactulate occasionally , and penis and testes feel warm and look red and dark sometimes? Please advise .....
Avatar n tn i saw the dr and he told me it was probably another prostate infection, possibly some urethritis, and a yeast infection! ARRGG!! he gave me more cipro and some diflucan. i took them both (1 diflucan) and took cipro for 10 days. symptoms in testicles and prostate felt better, but urethra was still hurting and uncomfortable mostly at night. my penis skin peeled like crazy, and the bumps got mostly better.
Avatar n tn The skin needs to go through some healing time and natural skin shedding time before the appearance will completely go away. Add a probiotic and cut back on sugar and processed flour foods and beer to get your body back to normal so you don't keep growing this stuff. And any time you use topical or oral antifungal, use the entire course. Don't stop early.
569479 tn?1247244001 Also, ask for nystatin cream and extra steroid cream. Take the diflucan and use the nystatin + steroid cream and it will go away. The doctor will tell you nystatin already has steroids in it. But ask for additional steroid cream or it will come back over and over again. It is like a mutant yeast that takes multiple visits to get rid of. I’m a diabetic and that is a monthly thing for me. I went through two years of it. Needed eight of the diucan and almost three weeks of nystatin.
Avatar n tn He told me to take Diflucan once to re stabilize my digestive system and take acidopholus once daily. He also directed me to buy monstat topical cream to apply three times a day and selsun blue to apply once daily for 20 minutes, wow! I am not noticing anything getting better and was wondering how long before I should notice anything changing. My stomach cramps have subsided but not the infection on my penis tip.
Avatar m tn Also I get sunshine on the skin when I can. I also take magnesium and vitamin D capsules. There are other rashes, including from fungus or yeast, and those can be treated with tea tree oil.
Avatar n tn Take some antihistaminic like Benadryl or Claritin and apply some calamine lotion on the rash. Also wear cotton clothes and keep the skin sweat free. If the symptoms persist then please 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. I sincerely hope that helps.
Avatar m tn Hello. I've been in considerable pain the past nearly 4 weeks now so I thought I would upload my question here. Its the first time I've used a site like this but looking for possible answers or a guide in the right direction. [I'll try to provide background and details of symptoms to current] On the 16th of January I was sexually assaulted while in America by a man orally and anal. I'm a 24 year old gay male and have normally very good health.
Avatar n tn I had a vaginal yeast infection and I guess it got in my mouth as thrush. I am now on diflucan and have been on it for three weeks. My mouth and eyes are so try. My nose itches really rally bad and my lips are so chapped. Is it the diflucan that is making everything dry out?
Avatar n tn The next day she complained of pain when urinating and a rash. Her OBGYN diagnosed UTI and/or Yeast. 2 weeks later i woke up to a slimy sticky skin where my penis and scrotum were somewhat stuck together. I separated them and there was a small dry black ulcer where the penis and scrotum were together. I went to a urologist who thought it was yeast but gave me an ELISA IGG HSV test (neg for 1&2).
Avatar m tn A few days latter I began to develop an irritating sensation and minor rash in my inner thigh where my scrotum and legs meet on both sides. I notice red area and what looks like white bumps under many of my pubic hairs where the hair comes out of the leg. I went to the doctors and right away he said I had a bad fungal infection which was similar to a bad diaper rash.
Avatar n tn I have recently developed little itchy bumps only on the palms of both hands and the bottom of both feet in the arch area. I can see them under the skin and when I scratch them they pop open and have water inside. If I scratch an area more will surface. I've never had this before. Can it be an allergy to something? Stress? My Dr. gave me a steroid cream to use at night with gloves and it's not working.
Avatar f tn A couple of thoughts. First, the recovering gland infection or whatever it was might itch a bit before it finally heals, which could take months. If it's tolerable, you can just wait it out. Second, all that washing may be leading to a skin rash. There's not much you can do about the first, but if it's a rash you could try apply lotion or even a topical antibiotic cream. Good luck.
Avatar n tn ive taken diflucan, antibiotics, and dermatitus cream and nothing does nothing, i havent a clue what it is, and heres the good part... it seems to have gotten all over my body and affected different organs and parts. ive always been a healthy kid eating only organic produce and natural daily vitamins. but since then, a bunch of me has been acting really weird and im sure its this "thing".
Avatar m tn If it it not completely cleared up by Monday I will return to the doctor again and see if there is anything stronger than diflucan and gynelotrimin they can give me. Given the fact that the symptoms greatly reduce with antifungals, it seems like a fungus is the problem. Although I am not diabetic and am HIV-negative, I do have a lifelong vulnerability to fungal infections. I come down with things like ringworm very easily.
Avatar f tn This rash started exactly two weeks ago, It started as a very itchy area of skin with small dots (thought it was poison ivy). I also had some other spots on my neck and arms that looked like poison ivy. I went to the doctor's right away and since it was only on the left side, she said it could be shingles. She sent a sample to the lab it was negative for shingles.
Avatar m tn Eczema comes and goes and for me it has always been on my ankles and lasts days not years. This rash is nothing like eczema. Unless your a doctor that claims everything is eczema.
Avatar n tn My penis recently broke out with skin ripping off (exposing a bright pink underneath skin) which has burned very bad, the rim around the penis on the right side is swollen and is producing a white goo (could be fungus), it has an odd odor and the cracked skin spread throughout the head of my penis and now it burns every time I have to go use the bathroom, and my boxers constantly stick to the penis where the cracks are trying to heal only re-ripping the skin.
Avatar f tn I took 3 more diflucan pills !!!!! then i took monistat 3 ovule!!!!!! and right now im suffering with swelling in the vulva. Not all day but for hours of the day at a time there is discomfort. the last day of treatment was 3 days ago. is it possible that i just need to take another monsitat 3 or do i wait for the affects to kick in ?
Avatar n tn It is an acute streptococcus bacterial infection of the dermis, resulting in inflammation. It appears as a red, swollen, warm, hardened and painful rash which may contain some vesicles. My sincere advice is to get it evaluated from a dermatologist as antibiotics(oral and intravenous) may be needed. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.
Avatar f tn I had been glucose intolerant for many years and since being put on Metformin and having the appropriate antifungal spray (yes Canesan does come in a small spray bottle) and a spray emollient to keep the skin moist, my skin issues are much improved and under control. I had been on antifungal medications for over 6 months (doctor prescriptions). If you do sweat a lot it may be worth getting Odaban that stops the excessive sweating in the area that is bothersome.
Avatar n tn I am now at 3 months and went to see another dr. He prescribed diflucan 150 mg 1x a day and nystatin ointment 2x a day, but I feel like it is still spreading. Thankfully only on my arm but it's huge and ugly! I don't feel like it's getting better. What's next?!
Avatar n tn Roughly 1 month ago, while I was masturbating, I noticed a kind of irritating spot under the gland of my penis. It was almost like there was a piece of dry skin on my hand and it was creating contact against my penis. I wouldn't describe it is a pain, more like a spot on my penis that felt a little odd with the friction of my hand on it. I noticed it a few times throughout the masturbation process.
