What can I use for thrush sores and burning?

Patient's Query

I’ve got thrush and using canesten I’ve got some sores come up like a watery blister that has broken and when I wee it really burns what can I use for this?

Answered by Dr. Madhu Sudan

When this happens, it can definitely make urination uncomfortable. Canesten is a good start for the thrush, but for the sores and burning, it's best to visit your sexologist. They might recommend a different antifungal cream or medication to help with the sores and the burning sensation. Meanwhile, make sure to drink plenty of water to dilute your urine and avoid any scented products in that area.

Acne is multi-factorial problem, hormonal disease in most of the patients, diet, exercise, hygiene, grooming practices play important role.so visiting dermatologist and taking treatment is one option and maintain treatment for long time because if you are getting any improvement with the treatment then continue it otherwise dermatologist will change it. there are few things that has to be taken care. One thing not to apply hair oil, avoid having dandruff or use anti-dandruff shampoos weekly on the scalp, using face washes that have salicylic acid or glycolic acid. Avoid using thick greasy moisturizers or cream on the face. Use only creams that are gel based or water based. Drink plenty of water, avoid fat or cheesy diet, exercise 10-15 mins of the day. Topical steroids have to be avoided. Topical antibiotics like Clindamycin are useful. Oral Antibiotics or retinoids are advised.

Yeast infection caused by bactrim

Female | 35

It is uncommon, that Bactrim might cause a yeast infection. This happens because the good and bad bacteria equilibrium in the body can be tipped by Bactrim thus allowing yeast to thrive. Among the symptoms are itching, redness, and a thick discharge. Probiotics and antifungal medicines can be used to cure this. It’s also a good idea to talk with your doctor about other possible medications.

I got hurt from a plastic chair and a small piece of my skin came off near my foot..It started bleeding but i didn't notice ..when i saw the wound the blood was already dried up so i cleaned it with water and didn't apply anything on it.. It's been 5 days since the injury and the wound is not healing..i applied some antiseptic cream on it later..it just hurts around that area and some kind of transparent liquid comes out occasionally.. what to do

Male | 19

The transparent liquid you see coming out is likely pus, a sign of infection. Try cleaning the wound daily with mild soap and warm water, then apply an antibiotic ointment. Keep it covered with a bandage to protect it. If it doesn't improve in a couple of days or if you notice increasing redness, swelling, or warmth around the wound, it's best to seek medical help.

Good afternoon. I am Subhankar Sir/mam The skin on my testicles is peeling off. There is some white coloured powder or it smells. Sometimes it itches too.

Male | 20

You likely have a fungus on your testicle. The symptoms you have mentioned like the peeling of skin, white substance, and smell, along with itching, appear to be a normal fungal infection. They may be caused by the lack of hygiene or tight clothes. This can be solved by keeping a dry and clean environment, wearing loose clothes, and using a pharmacist-recommended antifungal cream.

I had acne breakout in my forehead and chin

Female | 28

The forehead and chin acne breakout is a skin disorder resulting from blocked pores caused by excessive oil production. I recommend that you see a dermatologist to receive proper diagnosis and treatment. Based on the level of your acne, they might suggest topical adjuvants or oral medications.

दाद खाज खुजली से परेशान शरीर के निचले भाग में खुजली की शिकायत है

Male | 34

It seems like a case of fungal infection; a skin condition that may cause itching and redness on the lower part of the skin. It is caused by germs which thrive well in warm and moist areas. Keeping the skin dry and clean, using antifungal creams as well as putting on loose clothes can be helpful. To avoid further irritation, kindly refrain from scratching.
