Between Kolkata's monsoon humidity and the constant dampness in New Town during rainy months, stubborn fungal infections that keep coming back frustrate many residents.
Understanding what makes fungal treatments effective helps achieve lasting relief:
→ Topical antifungal creams work for mild surface infections; continue for 2 weeks after symptoms disappear to prevent recurrence.
→ Persistent or widespread infections need oral antifungal medications; skin scrapings confirm fungal type for targeted treatment.
→ Keep affected areas dry; moisture creates ideal conditions for fungal growth even during treatment.
→ Disinfect clothing, towels, and bedding in hot water; reinfection from contaminated items causes treatment failure.
At The Newtown Clinic near Axis Mall, our dermatologists identify fungal types and prescribe appropriate duration treatments. Serving patients across New Town, Salt Lake, and Rajarhat.
