If it does not respond to over the counter treatment there is RX Diflucan and other meds but it sounds like you might have success with the above.įungul/yeast infections are opportunistic preferring dark, warm, moist, areas.

I really don't have a lot of faith in his doctor - I don't think he is too experienced with SCI or with sores. Most cracked skin is found on the feet, hands or lips.
