Question 4

what really makes ringworm go away? i've tried everything, clotrimazole, tolnaftate, miconazole nitrate creams & terbinafine hcl pills & its still here

Accepted Answer

Lamisil/Hydrocortiso: Use Lamisil (terbinafine) and apply to infected and normal skin 2 cm beyond affected area
each day for a period of one month. The first week pair this with Hydrocortisone 1% daily. If this fails to resolve the problem then best to be seen to consider other causes. You may need an oral antifungal if the topical regimen fails and the lesion is determined to truly be ringworm. Hope this helps.

Question 6

Accepted Answer

Yes.: Miconazole will work on regular skin as well, as long as the rash you are treating really is a ringworm. If it doesn't work, something else is going on, and you should see your doctor or a dermatologist to find out what it is.

Question 7

i have cervical ectropion. dr. treated it with silver nitrate yesterday. moderate to heavy clotty bleeding today. is this a normal side effect?

Accepted Answer

Why Treated?: Cervical Ectropion is usually a normal, asymptomatic variation of the cervix, rarely requiring treatment unless vaginal discharge or post-coital (after sex) bleeding is very bothersome. The 1st treatment is usually to stop OCPs (like Yaz) which are often the cause of this phenomenon, Otherwise electrocautery is performed to ablate the bleeding vessels. Silver nitrate is not as effective.

Question 8

candidal intertrigo skin infection resisted to clotrimazole and ketoconazole, can be treated with oxiconazole nitrate or which cream i try now?

Accepted Answer

Stop creams: You will probably need oral medication based on your issues. I suggest a dermatologist or infectious disease specialist.

Question 9

i've been having an urgency to urinate  for about a week been to the dr 2 treated fors  std that were neg told i have nitrate in urin but not a uti?

Accepted Answer

Probable UTI: Nitrates in urine indicate a UTI 96% of the time.   A negative urine culture is needed to prove you do not have a uti.  Generally this finding is an indication for UTI treatment.

Question 10

candidal intertrigo fungus skin infection resisted to clotrimazole and ketoconazole, can be treated with oxiconazole nitrate or which cream i try now?

Accepted Answer

Question diagnosis: See a dermatologist. Meanwhile try a little hydrocortisone with whatever azole cream you have. Castellani solution is often effective for this.
