Question 1

i use miconazole it causes my skin to be red, is  this is a sign of allergy to miconazole?how to differentiate between fungal and bacterial jock itch?

Accepted Answer

It is typically: not easy to tell between the two mentioned, as both can reach a point of severity that would make the rash/ skin reaction appear similar.  Both can become pustular and/or weepy, though fungal infections are typically less inflammatory appearing than bacterial.  It is best that you see a healthcare provider to diagnose and treat your properly.  Thanks for trusting in HealthTap.

Question 2

can a bad fungal infection cause rash that hurts/tingle/crawly feeling? i thought scabies/derm says allergy.prednisone made worse, miconazole helping.

Accepted Answer

Not usual: Since prednisone made it worse, I suspect that your problem may be from an anxiety reaction if there is no visible rash.  If there is a rash, then one needs to consider other conditions than allergy (which usually causes itching).  This is not likely from a fungal infection however.  Get a 2nd opinion if needed.

Question 3

what is the definition or description of: micatin allergy?

Accepted Answer

Micatin: Micatin (Miconazole) is an  antifungal medication. For potential adverse effects see:  https://www.drugs.com/sfx/micatin-side-effects.html

Question 4

i finished equate miconazole 7 about 3 days ago, the box says no sex while using medicine, but i'm done now, is it safe to masterbait?

Accepted Answer

Yes: The concern about having sex while you have a yeast infection and are under treatment is one of passing the yeast to  your partner, who can then give it back to you.  If you have finished treatment and are without symptoms you can resume sexual activity.  In addition- routine hand washing and cleaning of any items used during sex should eliminate the possibility of re infection.

Question 5

my athletes foot still in my foof im using canesten and miconazole nitrate but still nothings change.whats the best medicine cream for athletes foot?

Accepted Answer

There are many: If off the shelf meds are not working then you need to see a podiatrist to make sure that it is an athletes foot infection or for a prescription med.

Question 6

i'm using miconazole 3 just saw that it's 16 years old. didn't realize i was using expired stuff. it burned 2 hours later. could it be toxic?

Accepted Answer

: Breakdown of medical products renders them ineffective and sometimes irritating. It is not toxic. Depending on where you used the miconazole your best option is to wash it off and start over with fresh product. If it was used vaginally, a soothing douche may help to remove the bulk of the old product.

Question 7

should i worry about microscopic tears occurring in a condom if i'm currently using miconazole suppositories when i can't check the condom after sex?

Accepted Answer

Condom: Probably not. But if you are truly concerned and it is not too late you could use Plan B. There is no way to guarantee that microscopic tears have not occurred, but condoms are generally quite effective and macro tears are uncommon.

Question 8

where should you apply miconazole nitrate?

Accepted Answer

Site of infection: This is an antifungal given for infection of the skin, nails and vagina.  It should be applied to whichever of these sites is infected, lightly, several times per day after cleaning and drying.

Question 9

are there any adverse side effects to miconazole?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Redness, pain, increased sensitivity.

Question 10

Sure: If it fails to give full relief, your DR will prescribe a fluconazole pill.
