How To Treat A Rapidly Spreading Fungal Infection?
My 10 year-old daughter has a fungal infection behind her ears and in the earring hole. We have treated it with tea tree oil, which really helped. We let it go, without treating it, and it has spread and and has become worse. What can we do to heal this?

Hi,
To cure fungal infection home remedy with tea tree oil is not enough.
She might require course of oral anti-fungal medicine and local application of anti-fungal cream.
Keep local hygiene clean and dry.
Ok and take care.
