Accepted Answer

I recommend using an antifungal medication such as Clotrimazole cream twice a day for at least 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take Fluconazole tablets once a day for 7-14 days to help treat the infection from the inside. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, wear loose-fitting clothing, and avoid sugary foods that can worsen yeast infections. If the symptoms persist, consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation.

Question 3

-Your elevated IGE level suggests an allergic response. Allegra-M can help manage symptoms, but it's essential to avoid allergens and follow your doctor's advice. Stay hydrated, and limit exposure to triggers like dust or pollen.

Question 5

How should I apply Onabet SD solution, and how long should I leave it on before washing my hair? Also, do I need to dilute the solution with water before applying, or can I use it directly?

Accepted Answer

To apply Onabet SD solution, you should first wash and dry the affected area thoroughly. Then, apply enough solution to cover the affected area and the surrounding skin. It should be applied directly without diluting it with water. After applying the solution, you should not wash the area for at least 3-4 hours to allow the medication to be absorbed properly. It is recommended to apply Onabet SD solution once or twice daily as directed by your healthcare provider.

Question 6

I got bit by Nairobi fly on my face, I used some ointments to cure it but it spread more. Currently I'm using Colgate, since it worked for many. I'm concerned about this one, I need your help.
Have a great day ??

Accepted Answer

1. Stop using Colgate: While it may have worked for others, using toothpaste on skin can be irritating and dry out the skin, making the situation worse.
2. Clean the area: Wash the affected area with mild soap and lukewarm water to remove any bacteria or debris.
3. Apply a topical antibiotic ointment: Use a topical antibiotic ointment, such as Neosporin or Bacitracin, to help prevent infection and promote healing.
4. Use a hydrocortisone cream: Apply a hydrocortisone cream to reduce inflammation and itching.
5. Avoid scratching: Scratching can lead to further irritation, infection, and scarring.

If the symptoms persist, worsen,seek medical attention
