Can I exercise with stretch marks post-fungal treatment?

Patient's Query

As asked earlier that can I exercise if having fungal infection, but now my q is after 1 month of medication my fungal infection is recovered, but due to long use of medicines , stretch marks are visible so now can I exercise..?

Answered by Dr. Archit Aggarwal

It is usual for scars to show up when you are on medication for a long time. Now that the infection is gone, you can begin working out, but you need to take it easy. Stretch marks usually disappear on their own, but applying moisturizer to your skin can help. Always keep in mind that it is your body that will determine the limits, and in case of any pain or discomfort, stop.

Acne scarring may be frustrating for people, but a wide range of treatments exists to diminish their visibility. Consulting a dermatologist who will evaluate your skin and suggest the right treatment based on the scarring severity is essential. A dermatologist can guide you in using treatments such as chemical peels, microdermabrasion and lasers to remove the scars.

I'm 28 years and suffering from PCOD. I have thick hair in chin, neck and chest. I usually use the epilator to remove the hairs but after 7-10 days, it regrows back. Can you please suggest ways to rid of it permanently?

Female | 28

• Polycystic Ovary Disease (PCOD) is caused due to production of immature or partially mature eggs by the ovaries in response to poor lifestyle, obesity, stress and hormonal balance.

• Excessive hair growth in the face, chest and back is associated with imbalance in the male hormone called Testosterone. Other symptoms associated include menstrual irregularity, acne, obesity and insulin resistance.

• Treating the underlying condition which is PCOD will help you get rid of the excessive hair growth.

• Medicine such as Clomifene is recommended for treatment as it encourages monthly release of egg from the ovaries and Metformin is prescribed to reduce the insulin resistance.

 

Lifestyle changes include:

Dietary Changes –

  Optimum diet includes a range of foods from many food categories, including healthy carbohydrates like vegetables and fruits, lean meats like chicken, fish, and high fibre grains.  

 Foods with a low glycemic index enable the body to release insulin slowly and gradually, allowing your body to utilise food as energy rather than store it as fat. Fiber-rich foods also aid with blood sugar regulation.

 Avoid refined carbohydrates, which are found in processed meals such as white flour, rice, potatoes, and sugar. Sugary beverages, such as soda and juice, should also be avoided.

Maintain Healthy weight –  

 Weight loss should be about half to 1 kg per week for 6 months, with the other method based on the amount of weight lost.

 Avoid crash diets since they deprive your body of essential vitamins, carbs, proteins, and minerals.

 When you go on a crash diet, your body will actually destroy muscle tissue to supply enough energy for your brain to operate.

Exercise regularly –

 Aids in the fight against obesity by burning calories and increasing muscle mass, both of which reduce insulin resistance. Exercise can also help decrease cholesterol and other hormone levels, such as testosterone.

 Physical activity is also vital. Moderate amounts of physical exercise for 30 to 45 minutes per day, 3 to 5 days per week, should be encouraged at first.

Consult your Gynecologists for starting with your treatment and take the aid of a nutritionist in order to design a customized diet plan.

I have a 14 year old daughter who has a had a itchy raised red puffy bump on her left shoulder the last two days. It happened in the middle of her basketball game. It has gotten worse from her bra strap and shirt rubbing against it. I want to know what it is and how to fix this mystery.

Female | 14

Looks like your daughter has a skin irritation that is contact dermatitis. One common type is contact dermatitis, which is caused by something rubbing against the skin and triggering redness, itching, and swelling. This thing might be her bra strap or shirt, which is the cause of the rash on her skin when it rubs against it while she is playing basketball, To make her feel better, try to use a soothing lotion or cream and let her put on clothes that are not tight enough to prevent rubbing as much as possible.

Hello dear doctor, I had an accident like 10 days ago, my leg got burnt because it touched the silencer, the burnt area turned completely white, and day after day, it released blood, yellow liquid, and its fresh everyday, its not even healing, im applying ointment called Quench, but it just dries over it and nothing is helping, I can't even walk, I really need help on what to do, should I apply any other ointment? Leave it open? Or what?

Male | 16

It seems that the burn is rather extensive and does not heal well. I would suggest early consultation with a dermatologist or burn specialist. Do not use any more cream and let the wound dry. It is essential to keep the wound well cleaned, dressed and treated. Seek medical help at the earliest.

Yeast infection caused by bactrim

Female | 35

It is uncommon, that Bactrim might cause a yeast infection. This happens because the good and bad bacteria equilibrium in the body can be tipped by Bactrim thus allowing yeast to thrive. Among the symptoms are itching, redness, and a thick discharge. Probiotics and antifungal medicines can be used to cure this. It’s also a good idea to talk with your doctor about other possible medications.
