Why am I getting a fungal infection?

Patient's Query

fungal infection why happening?

Answered by Dr. Archit Aggarwal

Fungal infections occur when certain types of fungi overgrow on your skin or nails. This can happen due to factors like warm and moist environments, weak immune system, or even skin injuries. There are steps you can take. Keep your skin clean and dry, wear breathable fabrics, and avoid sharing personal items. If you notice any signs of a fungal infection like redness, itchiness, or flaky skin, it's best to see a dermatologist for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Mere private part me bahut jada itching ho arha hai hain Maine v wash se wash karti hu lightly warm water se bhi wash krti hu aur candid b cream use kar rhi hu but vo thoda der thik lagta hain uske baad discharge ho jata hain aur itching start ho jata hain

You may have a common condition called a yeast infection. It is a common disease characterized by burning, a whitish or yellowish vaginal discharge, and also, redness around the vagina and itching. Vaginal yeast infections develop when new fungi appear on this secure bacterial turf. One drop of V wash liquid on the sanitary napkin and one drop on the private part will soothe your pain and prevent you from itching. When you temporarily mitigate the disease using V Wash and antibiotics, it does not mean it has been healed for good. Only by using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole can you get fully cured.

The penis area hair loss reason can be different. The rubbing of garments or activities is a common one. Also, psoriasis or fungal infections may cause hair to drop in that location. Use antidandruff medicine if it itches or appears red, keep it neat and dry besides dressing with comfortable clothes regularly is essential for preventing more hair fall in this region.

A couple days ago i noticed a large lump underneath one of my armpits. a few weeks prior my armpit had been feeling very sore and painful but i just recently looked and saw a large lump and there was some sort of discharge leaking from it.. a few days later it’s gotten somewhat smaller but now there is a nasty raw scab growing around it and it hurts and itches. also the center of the lump is red and sticking outward and looks like it’s bleeding.

I want to know about genital warts

Female | 25

Genital warts result from a virus which spreads via sex; they resemble tiny bumpy growths and may appear pink or flesh-colored, sometimes causing itchiness or pain. A dermatologist should be consulted for treatment; this could involve prescribing a cream or carrying out procedures to remove them. The use of protection during sexual activity can help prevent their transmission.

I applied hair removal spray on my chest and legs. Now I am feeling itchy and red rashes have appeared on my legs.

Male | 24

Itchy and red rashes are some of the common signs of sensitivity when your skin's non-acceptance is projected. This might be due to the presence of certain chemicals in the spray to which your skin is sensitive. Perhaps, you should try a gentle body lotion to reduce the itching and rashes.
