A member asked:

I have brown patches of skin on both arms. i was prescribed canesten 2% but it says for vaginal and genital use only. is it safe for the arms?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Should be safe: If an anti-fungal cream is safe for one's genitals, it is safe for her arms. The skin on her arms is stronger and thicker than the skin on her genitals.
