I'm a bit concerned because I was prescribed the fas 3 kit for a suspected fungal infection and followed the instructions, but after feeling better on day 2, the discomfort and burning sensation came back on day 3. The doctor said to check back after a week if things didn't improve, but I'm not sure if I should wait that long. Should I go for another consultation now, or give it a week like the doctor suggested?

It's normal to experience some fluctuation in symptoms during treatment. Since youre still feeling discomfort and burning, it's a good idea to consult your doctor sooner rather than waiting a week, especially if the symptoms arent improving. They may adjust your treatment plan for better relief.

Is Dandruff a fungus?

Cause of dandruff is unclear. It involves many environmental factors too. Yes fungus can cause dandruff but dandruff is not fungus alone.
