Have Dry Skin Rashes On Body, Took Antibiotics. Some Rashes Turned Into White Spots. Bacteria Present In Stools. Reason?
Hi! I am Neeraj Sharma (26 male) from New Delhi, India. 03 months ago, i saw same dry skin rashes on my body (Hands, stomach & butt). Firstly, ignored them & put ring gard (anti fungal cream) on as those were looking like ring worm initially but i consulted to skin doctor, he referred for VDRL & TPHA test. My vdrl found +ve till 1:16 in dilution but TPHA found -ve. I went for second opinion from more advanced Lab after 02 days from the previous test. Both VDRL & TPHA found -ve. Then doctor gave me few antibiotics tablet & cream. All the rashes vanished but 02-03 rashes on arms turned into white spot. I also take urine test 01 week ago & stool test yesterday. My urine test was found ok but there is bacteria in my stool test. Kindly suggest me as i am in depression from last 20 days.
