Patient's question:
Testicular skin starts to sweat and I can't stand the oxygen intake. I went to the doctor for a checkup, and they said it was a Candida infection. It's been about half a year now～! I bought two boxes of fluconazole, but I don't feel it's working well. Is it because the treatment course I took was too short, or is there another reason? I've used Daktarin before, but it didn't seem to work at all! I want to ask if not treating it for a long time could lead to changes. Please ask the expert what I should do～! Is it necessary to spend thousands of dollars on intravenous drip? Can you tell me a more economical treatment method?Doctor's answer:
Most women are infected with Candida at some point in their lives. Candida infections can be treated quickly with symptoms disappearing, but this does not mean they are cured, as they are prone to recurrence. If you are married, both partners should be treated simultaneously with oral fluconazole, taking 150 mg once. To prevent recurrence in women, fluconazole should be taken once after each menstrual period, for a total of three months. Women can also use the Butoconazole Trochanterate Suppository for vaginal medication treatment, following the instructions on the packaging, and should also follow the treatment method for three months.
