Not a doc but.....it's easy to guess you have some kind of fungi or bacteria that is there on your skin that is a bit out of control.
Is there a reason you won't just keep using the cream? And have you told a doc you have to use the cream or did you just get antibiotics that didn't work and give up? |
Thanks for your reply Tribbles... the reason I don't want to just keep on using the cream is that I suspect there's something wrong and I think the cream is just masking the odour.
