My relative had a hot oil spill accident and burned 25% of her legs. It's been 15 days since she's been in the hospital, and we're really worried about how long it'll take for her to recover. Can you give us some idea of the recovery time? We're feeling pretty panicked about this.

It takes really long time to heal and depends on the depth of the burns,no need to worry follow your doctor advice and give her high protein diet for a better result.

I've been struggling with a ringworm fungal infection in my groin area for the last two years, and it just seems to be getting worse. I've seen multiple dermatologists, but nothing has worked so far. I'm really frustrated and don't know what to do anymore. My inner thigh has even turned black because of this! Ive tried taking Candiforce 100mg, but still no luck. I'm at my wits' end here. Do you have any suggestions for a good medicine that might help?

I understand your frustration and concern about the persistent fungal infection in your groin region. I'm here to offer some guidance and suggestions. Causes and Symptoms Ringworm, also known as tinea cruris, is a fungal infection that thrives in warm, moist areas. Symptoms include: 1. Red, itchy, and scaly patches on the skin 2. Circular lesions with clear centers 3. Discoloration, including darkening of the skin Treatment Options Since you've already tried Candiforce 100mg, here are some alternative treatment options: 1. Topical antifungals: Clotrimazole, miconazole, or terbinafine creams can be applied directly to the affected area. 2. Oral antifungals: Fluconazole, itraconazole, or ketoconazole may be prescribed for more severe cases. 3. Combination therapy: Using a combination of topical and oral antifungals may be more effective. 4. Tea tree oil: This essential oil has antifungal properties and can be applied topically.
