Avatar f tn Hi, My vulve started to itch 6 months ago after I had an intercourse with my boyfriend. His genital was itchy too. He bought a yeast infection cream and it was gone. Mine wasn’t. I’ve seen doctors and tried a lot of traitements for yeast infection, nothing worked. I did bacterial test, std test, they didn’t find anything. I tried cortisone cream, I tried natural remedies (coconut oil, Aloe Vera, tea tree oil, lavender oil, baking soda in my bath.
Avatar f tn I consult a doctor and he said that is a yeast infection. He gave me itraconazole 200mg tablet for daily 14 days and clotrimazole 1% cream for apply. After i started the treatment within 7days those were disappeared and thenafter 7 days i stop getting medication. After 3 months pass 4 days a ago i saw again those came in same place small than earlier. What i need to do . And i saw some doctor advice because of antifungal resistance use combination of antifungal creams. Can i use same way.
Avatar n tn Both ringworm and yeast infection are fungus. in fact one of the very best treatments for ringworm is monostat mixed with hibiclense I am not a medical pro, but I did rescue 3 infested kittens 4 years ago and my hairless dogs got ringworm. from that i learned the ringworm spores can live many months. I bought a woods lamp, only to discover all ringworms do not florese. dry skin does florese. grr a waste of good money.
Avatar f tn I have developed a skin condition that will not go away. I have something wrong with my eyelids; they stay puffed, red, extra wrinkled, dryed out, flaky etc. I have a couple of spots size of a dime that are red and flare up and down but never go away. 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.
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 My husband is getting cure with that its called jockitch search bout it its also contagious i also got it and got a yeast infection creme for it and seems to go away he needs to get treated for atleast 2 weeks they have sprays at Walmart or he could get fungus pills works faster
Avatar n tn Dr. Santos, I talked to my boyfriend some more about his skin lesions, and he said that he remembered it was some sort of fungus. The lesions are big; there is a giant one that covers his stomach and is connected to the one that covers his groin area, and there is a lesion under his right armpit big enough to see when his arm is hanging down naturally.
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 if he says it's a yeast infection, i know this is going to sound very crazy but it works on them all. go to the store and buy monostat or a generic form of yeast med. for a womans yeast infection, but make sure it's a cream form, and apply it to the area and see if that helps you out at all.
1848070 tn?1320341883 This is not one of the expert forums, so if you want advice from a doctor, choose the other column of subjects. You could have a fungal infection. You could use a jock itch cream. If your feet also have symptoms, you can use the same cream for athlete's foot. If your partner has a yeast infection, that needs to be treated also. It's all a fungal infection and very common. It is not an STD if it is a fungal infection, yet it can be easily spread between people.
Avatar m tn It is a ringworm and my moms a nurse and told me about it I've been doing it for years and it works its not a skin disease trust me I kno the difference I'm just immune to medicine
Avatar f tn Hello thanks for your respone i went to the doctor was told i had a yeast infection and ringworm on penis ive had this for 6 years the creams do not work i dont know why it wont go away my penis tip is red and there is a raised circular type rash on penis and on my thigh its a red itchy rash just got it
Avatar m tn thanks for your reply. I have to wait until Tuesday but I am definitely going back to the doc. again. I am considering even going to the ER now because I won't be able to sleep without knowing. I'm tripping out. I don't even talk to the girl anymore because she's crazy and I've only had one yeast infection in my life when I was 18 after having sex four times a day with my new girlfriend at the time.
Avatar f tn s not impossible to get candida albicans in those areas, the groin and outer part of the anus would be very yard for yeast to survive in because oxygen kills yeast. It would have to be a very virulent and persistent and systemic infection which has spread beyond the intestinal tract or mouth, which has a wonderful environment for yeast if the immune system has broken down.
Avatar f tn So the story begins about two weeks ago, I got a yeast infection and took care of it. About 2 days after the treatment was over I began to notice chafing in my groin area.I have gained a few pounds so I thought to myself it was normal, just eat healthy and go for a jog. That same day I shaved. Following day I notice a few bumps and the chafing is getting worse, but once again I thought to myself maybe its just razor bumps.
Avatar f tn Sometimes meds for urine infection have a side effect of causing a yeast infection.
Avatar m tn but zfter doing research of my own ringworm is always on ur body in some form and moisture and cause it to grow. so from my reasearch it most deffinatly is either ring worm or a yeast infection. thank you soo much ill be going to my doctor in the next few days.
Avatar m tn I have been dealing with a ringworm infection on my arm for the past 3 months. Its not getting any better despite applying medical treatments prescribed by the doctor, and antifungal natural remedies such as apple cider vinegar. Instead, it has spread downwards towards my hand! The remedies i am using are supposed to work, but somehow it is not getting better! Is it because I put a bandage around my arm everytime i apply the ointments? Should I be even bandaging my arm?
Avatar m tn ve been grappling (Judo and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu) a long time and skin infection is always a concern. Staph and ringworm are the most common threat and we are told to be particularly careful of open wounds, burns, etc. that may get infected. Since the patches tend to get red and flaky when they are inflamed, I began to wonder how susceptible they make me to infection.
Avatar m tn Hello, You may be suffering from Tinea Capitis or Ringworm (fungal infection) of the scalp. Ringworm is a fungal skin infection that occurs on the face, body or scalp. The symptoms of Ringworm or Tinea Capitis include a dry itchy scalp, scaling, crusting, inflamed nodules, hair loss and tender enlarged lymph nodes on the neck. Because of the scratching that is involved with the condition it can become secondarily infected with a bacterial infection.
Avatar f tn If it's a red patch, whatever caused it in the first place he now doubtless has a bacterial infection (maybe cause by the scratching). He should get to the doctor and at least get a series of antibiotics. The doc can do testing for various things (yeast infection, fungal infection, bacterial infection, STDs, etc.
Avatar m tn Have you tried Benedryl? I know that sounds too good to be true, but my dogs get the redness, puffiness, sores on their pads a couple of times a year, and it's attributed to seasonal allergies. My vet recommended I try Benedryl, and I've not looked back. I start in September, and they take it through November, then again in March through May (those are my girl's allergy seasons). Check with your vet on the dose, but it's gotta be worth a shot, right?
Avatar m tn i had a boy shihztu who had real bad skin allergys, he took predsone shots and lived on meds all his 17 years of life. the smell is yeast infection, he needs meds for that and mine had it so bad that he lost his hearing from all the ear infections, i had him at dr every two weeks , but did not good, dont feed table food that can cause them and my vet gave me shampoo that helped some. how old is shihztu how long this been going on.
