Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have had dry feet and fungal growth for five to six days. I am suffering from athlete’s foot and type 2 diabetes. I am taking medications only for diabetes. However, I could not consume the prescribed medicines as there was a shortage of medicines I used.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I suggest you apply Luliconazole cream twice daily for one month, liquid paraffin lotion twice daily for ten days, and take the tablet Levocetirizine 5 mg at night after food for seven days (consult a specialist doctor, talk with him or her and take medicines with their consent). Keep the area clean and dry, and wear comfortable footwear.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
