Avatar n tn While ciclopirox is known to kill HIV in laboratory studies there are no studies regarding its utility in humans. The drug is widely used however for treatment of a variety of fungal infections (as you did). There are no studies of how the drug might affect HIV infection in humans however, with a drug this widely used, if it did have a major effect on HIV, I suspect we would have heard about it by now.
951906 tn?1246287693 Is this really ringworm? (pictures below) Or something different? Should I go to the ER or wait till tomorrow? BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Over 2 months ago this gross circular thing started growing on my leg. Since it was really itchy and formed little bubbles I thought it was posion ivy. Then about 2 weeks ago It started "spreading" and forming more of these circular rashes. Like 2 more.

Avatar f tn So, I went on with her directions and took the terbinafine for 10 days and used the desonate for 14 days. The rash did go away for a little while but came back even before I had finished the full treatment of terbinafine (I did in fact go ahead and finish the full 10 days). I went back to the doctor for a follow up and she wanted to take a biopsy which may in fact leave a scar (which I really do not want). She also suggested that this may be a reaction from the use of the steroids.
Avatar n tn 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.
Avatar m tn Im a generally healthy 29 year old male. I do get infreaquent herpes blister on my lower lip since early teens. (never tested but guessing its hsv1) 38 days ago I received oral sex (Comdom used) from a stripper. There was some tounge to scrotum involved. We also jumped inside the shower and she gave me a "hand job" (I think after she washed her private area) I also used HER soap and wet towel about 10 mins after she did. About 6 hours after the encounter, my scrotum started tingling.
Avatar n tn My 3 year old has white pus filled bumps on her scalp, even a day after washing her hair they appear. Sometimes some big bumps come up on her scalp that is raised and tough and they irritate her. What could this be?

Avatar m tn I usually shampoo twice a week and condition 3 times a week. I also wear a showercap on some days as too not wet my hair as I heard that is good for clearing the dandruff. Nothing has worked. I have used many different anti-dandruff shampoo with no luck. My scalp is itchy and feels EXTREMELY dry but at the same time if I run fingers through my hair it feels oily. I have noticed that I have red pimples on my scalp too.

Avatar m tn My folds in between my thigh was slightly red also but no lesions or cracks and she gave me some cream to put in these areas. I used this for about a week more with no change and became very worried and also stressed. When the doctor checked my weight out I had actually gained 15 or so pounds since march. I'm also a very hairy person and I tend to have over active sweat glands.
