Avatar n tn Throw out any hats or anything that the ringworm has come into contact with. We had ringworm (three of the children including the baby and my husband). My baby got it because I did not throw the hat in the garbage and several months later, I put the hat on my baby. She got ringworm on her scalp and had to take the oral medication. There was a chance of liver problems with the oral medication, but the cream just does not work on the scalp.
20797525 tn?1510602613 I have had candida for a little over a year now. It all started with strep throat that I required penicillin to combat. Penicillin helped but never fully eliminated the problem. I began to notice a lot of itching underneath my left arm. A few times I would put deodorant on and it would sting to high heaven. Then I noticed that classic yeast smell. I tried all types of treatments with no result, relief or answers.
Avatar m tn t see anything like ringworm but have been very itchy and I have three children diagnosed with ringworm this week :(
Avatar f tn Hi...candida is yeast and it can cause all types of issues...DIFLUCAN is one of the best meds I know to help rid someone of excess yeast. There r also diet changes that can also help..... I am prone to yeast infections when taking antibiotics, and DIFLUCAN is the only thing that helps. As far as dosage, sorry I can not help...I would suggest asking a Pharmacist as they know meds and interaction and reactions better then most drs.
Avatar n tn My doctor told me that I have a genetic predisposition to ringworm. I have fought this unfriendly fungus off and on for over 10 years. (43/F) I have taken Griseofluvan, Diflucan, and tried every topical cream, oil, and alternative remedy I can find. I took Griseofluvan for over 4 months with no improvement, and quit the treatment because of the toxic effects. The doctor said there was nothing she could do, that it was systematic, and I would never get rid of it.
Avatar f tn A lady a work yesterday said it looks like ringworm. I think she may be right. I have felt for a long time that I am covered in staph infections. My mom suggested antibacterial soap as opposed to dove that doesn't have it. I have hydrocortisone cream but don't know if that cures ringworm? I also got a small splinter in under my fingernail which I removed weeks ago. That turned into a red line down the middle of my nail.
Avatar m tn I went to the clinic on the 16th and I was told that it was only an irritation and I was given 150mg of diflucan. It cleared up and was looking better, so I had sex again with her 12 days later on the 28th of September; we did it at night and then again in the morning but I noticed she was somewhat dry in the morning and by that afternoon of the 29th, I immediately noticed that the irritation had returned.
Avatar m tn What is the usual dosage for treatment of toenail fungus with Diflucan? My doctor prescribed it to me and it just seems to be different than normal. He said to take 100 mg/daily for the first 10 days of each month until it's gone. Is that a normal regimen?
Avatar f tn Hello, I cannot confirm anything without examination but it can be nummular eczema or ringworm. Even herpes needs to be ruled out because you are sexually active. Ringworm is an itchy, contagious fungal infection that presents as circular or ring like lesion. Herpes presents with red itchy blisters which scab over. Herpes simplex is most easily transmitted by direct contact with a lesion or the body fluid of an infected individual.
Avatar m tn I went back to the doctor, he gave me diflucan, She also got diflucan. After three days on the diflucan, her symptoms were gone and mine were 90% gone. I then began to apply a diluted vinegar solution. The symptoms were gone for a few days, including the redness, but then they came back. Not as bad as before, but still there. At that point he screened for claymidia and gonnorea, and gave me the zpac. I continued diflucan and vinegar, with the sympmtoms almost, but not quite, vanishing again.
Avatar n tn I've taken 2 Diflucan tablets one one friday and one on Saturday. Monday i started bleeding my period is not due for another week.
Avatar f tn Within that two week time period the are on my left shoulder has transformed into a large circular (kind of like a tear drop shaped) area. My doctor gave me some anifungal cream thinking it was ringworm but the cream is not helping it at all. I was also put on Diflucan unrelated to the rash so that alone should have (?) taken care of it. The border of the rash is raised and when inflamed (border) it itches like crazy.
Avatar n tn Also no luck so I saw my doctor who prescribed oral Diflucan. At this point it had been 9 months and I had 10 lesions. She referred me to a dermatologist who took one look and said it's nummular eczema. I'm a little skeptical because when I look at pictures online it looks more like ringworm to me, but she said considering my age and the fact that it hasn't responded to treatment she's confident in her diagnosis.
Avatar f tn They didnt want me to talk diflucan that early. I am the same way as u. Nothing works but diflucan for me. so i know how u feel.
Avatar n tn I have a discolored red spot on the shaft of my penis, I have taken keteconozol and diflucan in the past for short periods of time and they have gotten rid of this. Now my doctor put me on 200MG of Keteconozol for 8 weeks at 200mg dosage. I have been taking them now for two weeks, how long will it take this to go away? .
Avatar n tn My son has a problem with recurrent ringworm. Now it seems that his ringworm happens about the same time I have a yeast infection. Are they related?
Avatar m tn Hello, I'm a 16 y/o girl with a super embarrassing problem. I've contracted ringworm on the back of my neck. It's bumpy, very red and swollen, and sometimes it just causes skin on my scalp to flake off like dandruff. Sometimes small little bumps (like pimples) will just appear around the area and they really hurt. I've been to the doctor twice now.
Avatar m tn //www.webmd.com/skin-problems-and-treatments/what-you-should-know-about-ringworm#1 Ringworm is not difficult for a physician to diagnose and treatment varies depending on the severity of the issue. Treatment usually takes 2 to 4 weeks to clear it up and prevent it from returning. Let us know what your doctor says.
Avatar f tn By the next day the ringworm will be gone. My children got ringworm in school and a Fillipino lady cured them this way. In case it isn't ringworm that you have, you might want to try this on just one spot.
Avatar n tn Apply warm compresses on the lymph nodes and complete the treatment for ringworm as prescribed by your doctor. Once ringworm is treated, lymph nodes will come back to their normal size. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how your daughter is doing.
Avatar f tn Heck yes it can be ringworm. Ringworm can cause folliculitis and present like this, especially early stages of it, or certain strains. Try applying an OTC anti-fungal ointment on the boils (clotrimazole `% twice daily or terbinafine once daily). If it's ringworm, you will see marked improvement after 1-2 days. You should keep applying the cream for the full treatment period though to make sure all the spores are gone. Run all clothes and bedlinens through a HOT dryer.
Avatar f tn When i put Lotrimin on it, it stops growing and does eventually dry up but even though i used it for a while even after the ringworm cleared, i found another ringworm 5 months later (today). I'm really frustrated. My sister told me to use Triamcinolone acetonide for this new ringworm and the ointment is anti bacterial and not anti fungal. I'm a little skeptical to use it (i have seen pictures of numular eczema though and what i have does look like it once it spreads a little more).
544175 tn?1232318506 Hello. I'll try to make this as short and to the point as possible, as it does relate to a current skin problem. But I feel a need to explain the history of the past few months because I feel there could be some kind of a connection here. I don't have health insurance so I try to only go to a doctor when I really can't find a home remedy.
Avatar n tn t adequately lubricated. My OB/GYN prescribed me with Diflucan, I took the dosage and it was gone. We had sex again, yeast infection came back, got another prescription, gone again. Had sex again, it came back AGAIN but this time I went to a different OB/GYN to get a second opinion. Turns out this time I had a yeast infection AND bacterial vaginosis. At this time I went and got tested to make sure I didn't have anything and I came back all negative.
