I'm really struggling with a fungal infection right now and could use some help. Could you recommend any antifungal creams that might work well for this? Would love to hear some specific names to look into.

I'm 37 weeks and 2 days pregnant and earlier today I used a small cap full of undiluted Dettol antiseptic liquid on my hands. I washed them about 5 times with body soap and water to try to get rid of the smell. I'm really worried if there's any harm to my baby from using undiluted Dettol, even after washing so many times. Could there still be leftover chemicals on my hands that I might ingest, which could then reach my baby?

Using undiluted Dettol antiseptic liquid on your hands during pregnancy can be harmful as it contains strong chemicals that may be absorbed through the skin. Even after washing your hands multiple times with soap and water, there may still be residual chemicals left on your skin. To be on the safe side, it is important to avoid using undiluted Dettol during pregnancy. If you have any concerns about potential exposure to harmful chemicals, you can consult with your healthcare provider for further advice.

I'm dealing with these white and pink patches on my back and shoulders, and I think it's tinea versicolor. I've been taking Fluka 150 tablets and applying Onabet B cream, but I'm not sure if I'm on the right track. Is there anything else I should be doing, or maybe something I'm missing?
