Suggest A Remedy For Fungal Infections On The Back And Stomach

Hey........i am twenty years old and for some years now I have this fungus all over my back and stomach come up. At first everyone thought and myself it was the color of my skin until it started to spread I realise it was lota. I used tablets n cream but they don t seem to work so I would like to know what can I use to make them go away for good.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

If you have wide spread lesions on your skin, you would likely need an oral anti fungal which can be combined with topical anti fungal medication.

Examples of oral antifungals are griseofulvin, fluconazole, itraconazole, terbinafine

A prescription from your doctor would be needed.

I hope this helps
