Suggest Treatment For Rashes On The Buttocks

default
Posted on Tue, 3 Jan 2017
Question: I've been using candidafx and probiotics which seem to have really helped my gut, but I'm still having a bad skin infection around the head of my penis and random spots on my sack. Also a rash between my buttocks and white build up on top of the skin between my buttocks. Around the head of the penis it gets hard and flaky. I've been using organic coconut oil and silver gel for a week but haven't seen much progress being made. Any suggestions?

Brief Answer:
Use antifungal medication

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query.
Probably you have developed fungal infection.
You need treatment with a combination of oral and topical antifungal medication.
I treat such cases with a combination of ointment clotrimazole to be applied twice daily for a month and capsule fluconazole 150 mg per week for 4 weeks.
This combination works well.
You can try this in consultation with your doctor.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you.
