Hi, I am suffering from fungal infection from last 4 months initially I have taken treatment for this (terbinaforce plus tube, tab terbinafine and tab levocet) then ringworm disappeared after 15 days they again reappears on my thighs then I have taken fluconazole tab with some fungal skin related tube and absorb powder then there is no improvement after that I have taken again (terbinafine tube, tab terbinafine and tab levocet) continues to take for 2 months so ringworms disappears but there are marks like stretches so I have changed medicine through consulting doctor (itraconazole 200 mg and luliconazole) for 1 and half month and then there is no relief in stretch marks so doctor changed my tube (sertaconazole 2%) instead of luliconazole. But there is no relief in my fungal infections. Please advice some best thing.

Have patience and do not keep changing the cream. You can add Homeopathy which can work internally and help in the healing process. Eat healthy food (more of fruits and vegetables) and maintain good hydration (drink 8-10 glasses of water ). You can contact me for a detailed consultation after which the suitable remedy can be given to you.
