How to treat recurrent fungal infections

There is no shortage of patients with fungal infections in life, but many patients always have psychological pressure, feel extremely irritable every day, and wonder every day whether their illness can be cured. In fact, fungal infections are very simple to treat and not complicated at all. Even so, some patients still have recurrent attacks. How should they be treated?

How to treat recurrent fungal infections? In order to completely cure fungal infections, on the one hand, doctors should explain in detail the medication methods and cure standards, and on the other hand, require patients to adhere to treatment, have regular check-ups, and not be afraid of trouble.

Adhere to the principle of joint governance of husband and wife. Generally, after a woman is diagnosed with Candida albicans infection, we always prescribe some additional medicine for her to take home and give to her husband. Some women think it is unnecessary, or do not want their husbands to know that they have the disease, believing it to be an "unclean" disease. In fact, although sexual contact is the most common way of infection with Candida albicans, it can also be caused by contact with contaminated bathtubs, bath towels, swimsuits, toilets, etc. If you hide the disease from your husband and prevent him from receiving timely treatment, it will not be worth it.

There are many ways to treat fungal infections. Generally speaking, physical therapy is the main method, supplemented by drug therapy. It is absolutely not possible to buy medicine at the pharmacy by yourself. Without the guidance of a doctor, it is easy to damage the body's own bacterial flora and cause other complications. While taking the medicine at the time may relieve the symptoms, once the medicine is stopped, the symptoms will recur.

Personal hygiene is important. When treating fungal infections, make sure to wash underwear and socks separately, and expose underwear to the sun, or scald them with boiling water. Usually, pay attention to not washing socks and underwear together, and use boiling water to scald used underwear. Do not dry the washed items, but expose them to the sun. To put it simply, mold is the same type of bacteria that infects athlete's foot. Be careful and it won't relapse.

The reason for repeated fungal infections is that patients do not take medicines on time and do not persist in taking them, so the fungal infections are never cured. Therefore, everyone must take the medicine according to the standards required by the doctor, and both husband and wife must take it together. I hope everyone will remember this. Finally, everyone should pay attention to their own cleanliness and hygiene to avoid recurrence of infection.
