Suggest Remedy For Recurring Fungal Infection In Foot
I have a foot fungus that is making me sleepy and everything. I ve had it cured. But now it s came back and I don t have the insurance to go to the doctor. What over the counter meds. I ve tried Tinactin antifungal and now I have also got it on my groin even though I don t use the same towel... I use a different towel every time.
Hi, Having chronic fungal infection application of local anti-fungal cream is not enough. You might require one course of oral anti-fungal medicine like Flucanozole 150 mg once in a week for 4 weeks to get complete cure of infection. Avoid more perspiration and remaining foot more wet as this might precipitate infection. Keep local part clean, dry and airy. Ok and take care.
