Could you suggest treatment for fungal infections?
Asked by Female, 30 · 2 months ago
The choice of antifungal treatment depends on the type, location, and severity of the infection. Mild, superficial skin infections may respond to over-the-counter topical antifungals, while more severe, widespread, or systemic infections often require prescription oral or injectable antifungals. It is strongly advised not to self-medicate, as inappropriate use can worsen the infection, cause side effects, or mask underlying conditions. Consulting a doctor is essential for accurate diagnosis and safe, effective treatment.
