Will Candid B Lotion Reduce The Fungi On Big Toes And The Pain When Toes Are Stubbed ?
Hello, my name is Hopewell and I have some fungi on my big toes and getting those toes stubbed is really painful, I can't even apply pressure when cutting my nails. I've been using candid-B lotion for a week now. Will I get any results from using this lotion? If yes, how long will it take?

Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Candida infection usually causes intertrigo and can be very painful. I suggest you apply the prescribed lotion on the affected area at least three times daily. Keep the area clean and avoid exposure to moisture. You can take over the counter painkillers for the pain and treatment should be continued for at least two weeks.
Thanks.
