What Are The Side Effects Of Using Luzu For Fungal Infection?
My 5-year old was prescribed Luzu for a fungal infection on her leg. This is about the 5th day she has been taking it and she now says it burns for about 5 minutes after applying and the whole area looks very red. Its about a 5inch by 3 inch spot on her leg.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern this is important to confirm the lesion that it is fungal infection if this is not the fungal infection then antifungal wont work here if the lesion is doubtful then this need to treated with the broad spectrum treatment which covers all the possibilities of infections I think it better to have words with the dermatologist, hope this information helps you, have nice day.
