I Have All White Chalky Patches All Over My Body
Question: i have all white chalky patches all over my body and it itches seems to be the same as what i get in my hair and nails
Brief Answer:
Hope you have a good health
Detailed Answer:
Hello Stellarobinson, thank you for your question and I hope I can be of help to you today.
I am sorry to hear about this. White chalking patches on the body can be caused by fungal infection because you also have a history of hair and nail problems before. Do you have any picture reports? It would be helpful to see it. If you have a fungal infection on your body part, you probably will not need pills. You can use a special gel, cream, lotion, or powder that kills fungus.
I hope that I could be of help to you today. Please let me know if you need any clarification. If you have any more questions, I will discuss them with you further. Wishing you good health.
Best regards,
Dr. Heang Raksmey, General and Family Physician
