Suggest Remedies For Fungal Infection Around A Man's Nipples

default
Posted on Wed, 23 Nov 2016
Question: Hello Dr. Ng. I wanted to update you that I have applied antifungal and antibacterial cream around my nipple since last week as you advised, and the dark crusty areas are disappearing and the skin looks more normal. I am amazed at this case because I never heard of men having these things around the nipple area!
How long should I continue to apply it?
Thanks.

Hello, XXXXXXX

It is a fungal infection Any one can have it. Even males do get such type of infection around the nipples. Any part in the body can get fungal infection. Wipe your skin properly after bath and Keep your skin well hydrated to avoid further recurrence.

Any issue kindly follow up.
