As a physiotherapist, a person with a medical background, I have a good knowledge of skin diseases and body care. Therefore, even at the first symptoms of foot disease, I began prevention: I washed my feet three times a day, treated my shoes, changed cosmetics for my feet. When this didn't help, I went to a dermatologist and he confirmed that I had a yeast infection.
The dermatologist said that the use of antifungals could be started immediately at the first suspicion, since they are used not only for treatment, but also for prevention. Fortunately I was attentive to my health and did not have time to start the situation. Therefore, I strongly advise you to take a course of prophylaxis with a cream, as soon as you find any of the symptoms. I successfully got rid of all manifestations of mycoses in four months.
My job involves a lot of time on my feet, as well as daily shoe changes in the clinic, so I now use cream at work to prevent re-infection. In the future, on the recommendation of a doctor and feedback on the forum, I will switch to using the cream only in the gym and pool, as well as in certain situations.
Before ordering Fungent, I tried two drugstore creams and gave each one a week to test its effectiveness. One caused severe dryness of the feet and exacerbated flaking, and the other did not affect symptoms for a week.
I chose Fungent after consulting a dermatologist, since its composition meets all clinical recommendations and the experience of use of doctors is very good.
Before using, I read a review of studies and also asked friends and colleagues. Everyone noted that the cream must be used regularly, otherwise the fungus will develop faster than you fight it.
In the end, I decided to stick to a strict outline and not deviate too much from it.
I already had improvements somewhere on the third day, by the end of the month the smell disappeared even after my feet sweated. All symptoms disappeared after two months. The nails recovered around the end of the third month and I used Fungent for another month to correct the results. Now I use the cream only for prevention and maintain a well-groomed appearance of the legs.
