Suggest Remedy For Fungal Infection On Skin
Question: Need follow up answer by Dr. XXXXXXX XXXXXXX MD
Friction blisters are no longer there although the skin seems to keep peeling off and very moist. The whole area is very most. There is no odor but I am under suspicions I may have a yeast infection. When cleaning it tonight a lot of skin came off and it was bleeding. I've been soaking it in salt water and got some yeast infection cream. Please advise if I should continue or what this is. Thanks!
