What is Mycosis?
Mycosis is a fungal infection caused by organisms like dermatophytes, yeasts, and molds. Depending on its depth and location, it may be classified as:
-
Superficial Mycosis – affects skin, nails, or scalp (e.g., ringworm, athlete’s foot, candidiasis)
-
Subcutaneous Mycosis – involves deeper layers under the skin
-
Systemic Mycosis – involves internal organs and may be life-threatening
Our specialists recommend a customized antifungal approach depending on your condition and immunity.
Common Causes of Mycosis:
-
Excessive sweating or humid environment
-
Poor hygiene or tight synthetic clothing
-
Diabetes or compromised immunity
-
Prolonged use of antibiotics or steroids
-
Shared personal items like towels or footwear
-
Contact with infected persons, pets, or surfaces
Mycosis Treatment Options at Paras Hospital, Srinagar
Our fungal infection specialists offer both medical and non-invasive treatments, including:
Topical Antifungal Medication
We use medicated creams, lotions, or powders to treat mild to moderate fungal infections of the skin, nails, or scalp. Examples include clotrimazole, ketoconazole, and terbinafine.
Oral Antifungal Therapy
In persistent or widespread cases, our doctors prescribe oral medications such as fluconazole, itraconazole, or griseofulvin to clear deep-rooted fungal infections.
Laser Therapy for Nail Mycosis
Advanced laser treatment is used to painlessly kill nail fungus in resistant cases, promoting healthy nail regrowth.
Steroid-Antifungal Combinations
For inflammatory fungal infections, steroid-based antifungal creams help relieve redness, swelling, and itching while treating the root cause.
