If you are looking for the best treatment for fungal infection, visit Royal Derma Clinic and book an appointment with Dr. Meenakshi.

Treatment for fungal infections depends on the type and severity of the infection, as well as the individual’s overall health.

A fungal infection, also known as mycosis, is a condition caused by an overgrowth of fungi in or on the body. Fungi are organisms that thrive in warm, moist environments.

Types of Fungal Infections:

1. Superficial infections (affecting skin, hair, nails)
2. Cutaneous infections (affecting skin)
3. Subcutaneous infections (affecting tissues beneath skin)
4. Systemic infections (affecting internal organs)

Common Fungal Infections:

1. Athlete’s foot (tinea pedis)
2. Ringworm (tinea corporis)
