A member asked:
If ketoconazole 2% shampoo isn't for genital bumps , why would my doc give it to me ? (because i complained about the scarring from genital bumps)

Anti fungal med: It is an anti fungal medicine. You always have to have a two way conversation with your doctor as to what he/she thinks is wrong and what he is prescribing and what he expects to happen. It is two way, not one way!
