Recently I got diagnosed with a fungal infection of my scalp. My doctor
prescribed me a topical antifungal agent. However, I have not seen any
response. Does this thing work?
What you have is tinea capitis. Your doctor is clueless. For tinea capitis,
no topical medications work. You need to take something by mouth. There are
some effective antifungal medications. Tell your doctor that you want a prescription
for griseofulvin. It has the ability to penetrate the hair and keratin and will
quickly get rid of the fungus. You
will need treatment for 4-6 weeks. There are also some other mediations, like
fluconazole but these are expensive. Try griseofulvin it is cheap and effective.
Please dump your doctor. Shit- if your doctor does not know how to treat a simple fungal
infection then it is unlikely that he/she knows anything useful.
