What are Fungal Infections?

These are skin infections caused by fungus usually in moist warm parts of skin. Common examples include athlete's foot, ringworm, and yeast infections. These infections often result in itching, redness, and discomfort. Treatment typically involves antifungal medications, which can be topical or oral, depending on the infection's severity and location.

Our Approach to Treating Fungal Infections

Stage 1
Diagnosis and Assessment

We start with a thorough examination to confirm the fungal infection type and severity. This involves reviewing symptoms, conducting skin scrapings or cultures, and evaluating patient history to identify potential sources and contributing factors for effective treatment.

Stage 2

Personalized Treatment Plan

Based on the diagnosis, we develop a customized treatment plan, which may include topical or oral antifungal medications, and lifestyle adjustments. Our approach emphasizes eliminating the infection while minimizing side effects and preventing recurrence.

Stage 3 onwards (if required)
Ongoing Monitoring and Education

Regular follow-ups allow us to monitor progress and adjust treatments as necessary. We educate patients on preventive measures, such as maintaining good hygiene and avoiding triggers, to support long-term skin health and prevent future fungal infections.
