General & Family Physician, Dr. Nishad BN's Response
Hi Thank you for asking HCM I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to fungal infection. Using ketoconazole based lotion and salicylic acid lotion will be helpful. If that is not helping then short course of corticosteroids will be helpful. Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear. Thanks.
