Suggest remedy for itchy rashes in knees
Patient: Morning Doctor, am a young woman aged 39 years, positive and recently i had rushes around knees which was itchy went to my doctor prescribed Nac Fluconazole and a micorva crea to apply on the affected ares but the rush seems not to be diasappearing at all this is the 7th day taking medication, how long can i expect the rush to disaapear Doctor: Hi,It may not be fungal infection...so not responding to antifungal treatment given by your doctor. It may be some allergy leading to eczematous dermatitis. Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. I would recommend you to apply mild steroid cream. And take oral steroids in tapering dose with antihistaminics. Avoid the contact with suspected allergens. Avoid soap bath.Hope this helps.Dr.Ilyas Patel,Dermatologist
