How To Get Rid Of Candida?
Dear Doctor Please help.
My age is 53 yrs. I have been suffering from Candida for the last 6-7 yrs. After infection l suffered with gas, bloating, loose motion, white coating and rash on my penis. Infection & itching on my nose joint and underarms. All still exist.
l had also been taking Alcohol for 25 years which resulted in Fatty Liver. I was prescribed
Viboliv 500 mg, Heptral & Digestal. My last blood report of Liver Profile states everything to be normal but Ultrasound still shows fatty liver though reduced.
Presently my condition is very bad because of Candida. I am suffering from constipation, loss of appetite, chronic fatigue, anxiety, depression, insomnia , joint pain & my face has turned thin and sunken and looking very old and wrinkled.
About 2 yrs back I was prescribed Fluconazol once a week for 4 months. Later I have been prescribed Itrconazole which I have avoided because of my weak liver.
Sir Please help in any way you can and guide me get rid of CANDIDA.

Thanks for your query at HCM!
I am Infectious Disease Specialist! I went through your query!
Had you had unsafe intercourse in past. I suggest get an HIV test done.
You can apply topical steroid+antifungal cream on lesion and oral anti-fungal.
If you do not respond you can get culture/sensitivity at specialized centers for yeast infection. do treatment accordingly.
What is blood sugar level?
You also need to consult a psychiatrist.
