Suggest Homoeopathic Remedies For Recurring Red Rashes On The Body

Posted on Mon, 15 May 2023

Question: After about 3.5 weeks of using the 1% clotrimazole cream, it did not help. So I took 150mg of Fluconazole tab for 3 days. After that, it all disappeared and I was feeling normal. However from last 2 days, it has come back again - red rash... a little bit of itch early in the morning and when I run under the foreskin, white curd like substance is there..

So, I went back to the Fluconazole 150mg for 8 days and after the first 2 days, it all cleared up. Now it has been 3 days since I stopped te tabs, and I am still ok, but a bit concerned that it may come back.

Is there a homeopathic medicine that I should take as a precautio for longer duration or if t does return back? I am worried about taking excessive Fluconazole for exteded periods of time.

I have checked my blood sugar and A1C to make sure I am not diabetic or such.

Hi,

I'm of the following opinion:

1. Although you have been diagnosed online by experienced Dermatologist/Venerologist to have a yeast infection for better management kindly have a direct physical examination with your city/town Doctor.

2. Make sure that being overweight and having poor personal hygiene is not an overlooked cause.

3. Although checked with blood sugar make sure to check with Urinalysis/culture, swab culture or any other investigation required.

4. Wash the glans with boric acid mixed in water.
Medicine like Apis mellifica, Rhus toxicodendron, Cinnabaris, and Mercurius solubilis not only give symptomatic relief but also helps in restoring the foreskin.

Drink cleaner water. Keep the area dry.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Thank you Doctor.

Yes, I did go and see a Skin Specialist locally who examined me and told me it was a yeast infection.

Overweight is not a problem as I am not really overweight. Also, I did do Urin culture to make sure there was not a UTI infection. From an hygine perspective, I do clean it at least twice a day. I am 55 years old and have never had this issue before.

Like I said, after I did the Fluconazole 150mg for 8 days, I have now been clear for 4 days. I have my fingers crossed, but also want to pursue Homepathy to keep the yeast infection off.

Also, while the rash has not come back, I still feel soreness on the glans to soem extent.

Thanks

Hi,
