Fungal infection — frequently asked questions
What is the cost of fungal infection treatment in Tirupati?
It depends on the site and extent of the infection and whether tablets are needed. Please consult the clinic for an exact quote after your examination.
Why does my fungal infection keep coming back?
The most common reasons are stopping treatment too early, using mixed steroid creams, damp or tight clothing, and untreated family members. A proper plan addresses each of these.
Can I use a steroid cream for ringworm?
No. Steroid creams can hide the rash for a while but let the fungus spread and become harder to treat. Use only what a doctor prescribes.
How long does fungal infection treatment take?
Skin infections usually need a few weeks of treatment; nail infections take much longer. The doctor tells you exactly how long to continue.
