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!

My RES has clear, strandy, cotton material growing around his neck and legs. I don’t know if this is fungal infection or shedding. If it is fungal infections, can you give me advice on treatments?
