I've been dealing with a fungal infection for a month, so I went to see a skin doctor who gave me Eberconazole tablets and cream, but also Cetrizine HCl tablets. Interestingly, I've also been having a runny nose and sneezing for the past 23 days, which I didn't mention to the doctor, but they somehow ended up addressing it. I'm curious if there's a connection between sneezing, a runny nose, and fungal infections. When I skip the Cetrizine, my sneezing and runny nose come back. I've tried searching online but can't find anything. Is there really a link between these symptoms and fungal infections?

I've been feeling this weird pin prick sensation on the sole of my foot whenever I walk or put pressure on my toe. It's not like a bunch of needles, just feels like one sharp point. What could be causing this? Should I be worried?

Although it is unlikely that these are symptoms of diabetic neuropathy, it is advisable to have your blood sugar values tested for confirmation. It is best to consult a Dermatologist for further evaluation.
