Dermatology in Bareilly
Recurrent ringworm and tinea infections are Bareilly's most common dermatology complaint. Dr. Pinky Nisha at Skin Solution Clinic treats fungal infections with targeted antifungals — never steroids — and addresses the root cause of recurrence.
Quick answer
Fungal infection treatment at Skin Solution Clinic, Bareilly costs ₹300 for consultation plus ₹500–1,500/month for antifungal therapy. Dr. Pinky Nisha uses oral and topical antifungals without steroids, treating for a full course to prevent recurrence. Treatment duration is typically 4–8 weeks.
Fungal skin infections (dermatophytosis) include ringworm (tinea corporis), jock itch (tinea cruris), athlete's foot (tinea pedis), and scalp fungus (tinea capitis). They cause itchy, ring-shaped, red, scaly patches that spread if untreated. In Bareilly's hot and humid climate, fungal infections are extremely common and often mismanaged with steroid-antifungal combination creams that provide temporary relief but cause steroid damage and recurrence.
Treatment is needed for itchy, ring-shaped rashes on the body, groin, or feet, infections that keep coming back despite treatment, scalp patches with hair loss in children, nail thickening and discolouration from fungal infection, or steroid-damaged skin from misuse of combination creams.
Dr. Pinky Nisha diagnoses fungal infections clinically and with KOH microscopy when needed. Treatment involves targeted oral antifungals (terbinafine, itraconazole, or griseofulvin) for adequate duration (4–8 weeks), topical antifungals applied correctly, hygiene counselling to prevent family spread, and treatment of all affected family members simultaneously when appropriate.
Before your visit, stop applying steroid-containing combination creams. During consultation, all affected areas are examined and the fungal type identified. Oral and topical antifungals are started immediately. Itching reduces within 3–5 days. Complete the full course even after patches clear to prevent recurrence. Follow-up at 4 weeks confirms cure.
