My guinea pig has a patch of what looks like dry skin on her right ear. I haven’t really noticed her scratching at it, but it never seems to get better. Anyone have any ideas of what this could be? My husband tried putting a small amount of hand creme on it to see if it would help and it just looked really red and sore the next day so we won’t try that again. I’ve looked up some information online and saw that they can get mites and fungal infections, but what Piglet has looks nothing like the pictures of those - as it doesn’t seem to be that pronounced yet. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

In what type of clincial situation would you expect to see more fungal infections?

What are some of the organic methods of preventiing or treating plant fungal infections such as bights and rusts that are organic and work well?

Please list the type of infection, so I know that we are thinking of the same problem to use treatment on.

Thanks

If you had a fungal infection on your finger and you scratched a cut, could the fungal infection spread to the cut? Can you get fungal infections inside your body or are they just external? Can fungal infections be as serious as bacterial and viral infections in an otherwise healthy person?

Can anybody suggest a good ointment for fungal infections?Is there any other way of getting rid of them?
will fluocinolone acetonide do?
cn u suggest names of medicines in India?

Back in September I woke up one night with what looked like a regular spider bite. It wasn’t sore but it was just a red bump. A few days after that the bump went away but it left my skin brown and dry looking (the patch is about the size of a penny). Now 4 months later the patch is STILL there.
I went to see a doctor and she said it was a fungal infection and gave me some steroid cream which I used for about a month and it seemed to do nothing for me. So I went back to the doctor and she gave me an anti-fungal cream which Ive been using for a while. Both creams have done absolutely nothing to make this patch go away.
Might this patch on my skin be something else? Any ideas of how to get rid of it? Do fungal infections just take a while to go away?

There is a spot under my chin that has stopped growing hair. At first I didn’t worry about it and then the spot started getting bigger. I know that fungal infections like ringworm can cause hair loss. But, the skin isn’t itchy, discolored, or dry whatsoever. The only thing unusual about the spot is that hair isn’t growing there. What’s going on? I’ve been applying an anti-fungal cream for two days. If that doesn’t work after a week, I’ll see a doctor. But, has anyone seen this before?

so i’ve got a 16 month old boy and he has this fungal rash on and around his penis, even on his bum (and no it is not diaper rash. i checked with his doctor) now, he has prescribed nystatin, and ketoconazole cream to treat it and it still hasn’t gotten better, in fact its gotten worse..

dont tell me to go to the doctor, i already have an appointment but its not for a month..

what causes fungal infections? and how come he’s never had it before he was a year? and why is nothing helping?

i’ve tried, every type of diaper cream, every type of baby powder, yogurt, baking soda, and different diapers..

apart from sleeping, he has been running around diaperless for 3 days straight…

any suggestions?

and dont tell me to get another doctor. he is a very very good doctor, just busy.
um yea i use baby wipes not tissue.. u obviously dont have kids..

its not the diapers. i’ve tried every kind there is.
i think its funny that people dont read exactly what i wrote.. someone actually said "let him run around diaperless"

um, yes. i’ve done that for 3 days….
his doctor assumed it was fungal, he didnt test it or anything.

dont tell me that i’m not cleaning him properly, i always disinfect my bathtub and bathroom and everywhere else before i let him play in anything.

you can get infections that have nothing to do with cleaniness.

i heard fake nails can give you fungal infections, how do you avoid it?

I think I have a pretty serious fungal infection growing in a very sensitive area and I do not wish to see a doctor, I have not done anything yet can someone recommend any creams or treatments, please help.
I believe you are both retards on should kill yourselves, because apparently you have had fungal infections on your penis.
PENIS ROT!
