On which part of your body is the skin deaseas? You can try using hot iron like you deep an handkerchief in a water and then put it on hot iron then massage the swollen spot or portion for two weeks. After each massaging you apply anti fungi cream

Hi, I'm really sorry for all you've been going through. Honestly, I've got no solution for you but I just want to tell you to stay strong and keep your head up, don't let what's you're going through affect your confidence and peace of mind, I know it's easier said than done but there's no problem that's doesn't have a solution. In Benin city where I live, some people resort to seeing old women that sell roots and herbs when pharmaceutical drugs fail them, I suggest you do your research and locate any of them in your city. Sometimes these infirmities can be inside the body while manifesting on the outside and in need of good herbs to flush it out. Goodluck.
This is a very good advice. Also eat lot of fruits and try different tides like skineal

It took me alot of courage to open about this online after so many years. Please help me find a solution.

I wish there is any permanent solution to this skin infection. I've been suffering from this for more than 7years. It's itchy and worsens Whenever I sweat, especially after doing some work under the sun, the infection becomes swollen a bit and I feel pains all over my body because the salt inside the sweat touches the infection. It is very painful like when someone adds salt to a fresh injury!

I recently did a skin endoscopy test and have taken the medication prescribed by the doctor twice but all to no avail. In the past I took so many drugs and rubbed so many antibacterial cream including funbact A but the infection persisted, right now I am feeling heat and can't sleep because of the itch. I wish I can express my pain in voice, I can't even go shirtless in public or do any activity that will result to me sweating, some days I bath four times to avoid it getting worse. I wash my clothes every day and don't wear any one twice before wash but all this has resulted to it getting more worse. I wonder the final solution, please help out!!! I am tired.


I pray God blesses you as you help me out.
Guy it is psoriasis, you started noticing it from thirty something years of your life, it is not a disease, it is an auto immune disorder and it is incurable, you have to find a regiment to manage it.

It is there because something is triggering it, find the trigger an it will subside.
Alcohol, smoking, some foods, even having a small injury or cut on the skin can trigger it, if you see the hell I passed through when I discovered mine, mine affects my face and neck, Anything that will trigger your immune system such as inflammation eVen inside ur body will make it show, it has no cure bro.

It's a wonder no one is talking about Tetmosol soap. That soap works like a miracle. Get this soap, and come back within a week to give a feedback. You can also get Mectizan drugs, but please get TETMOSOL SOAP

Re: This Skin Infection Is Killing My Joy Everyday by DrAda(f): 4:09am On Jun 11, 2024
@VersatileVee, this is not a fungal infection so stop applying all antifungal or triple action cream suggested by people on this platform that are not even in the medical field.

Remember, the skin is the largest organ in the body. So protect it at all cost.

What did the skin biopsy say?

When I first saw the pics, I immediately thought of ichthyosis. A mild variant of it I suppose

Differential diagnosis: Xerosis Cutis

Visit a teaching hopsital and see a dermatologist to manage your case

Thank me later

Visit a dermatologist. Trial and error won't get that stuff off your body. Thought cost of seeking the services of a trained dermatologist can be prohibitive, I am pretty sure you will find your solution there. The earlier the better.

You seems to know this very well, it it itches like mad after bath. Sometimes because of the itching I can't go out all through the day or sleep at night.

I will get the cream, what about killing it inside the body system so that it doesn't come up again?
When you get the cream, also get the tablet. There is Nizoral tablets I am sure and combine it, but read the leaflet for dosage.

The solution is Agbo and black soap.

He can bath with the Agbo leaves that will be boiled. The extract will be used to bath, with native soap. He will also drink the extract to kill the infection from within..

Sharp treatment...

I know this because it happened to someone close to me..and the cure was given to us by a BABA we were referred to..

Very sharp results in less than 1 week and since then, no reoccurrence.
Ok thanks. Please can I contact you?
Re: This Skin Infection Is Killing My Joy Everyday by Vacora(m):
Definitely eczema. Your body is reacting to something you’ve eaten or have been exposed to. Avoid inflammatory foods and investigate your lifestyle. Avoid refined sugar, dairy and alcohol. Eat more vegetables and fish/meat. Lots of water and try a cleanse using herbs. Your liver or gut has had enough or the useful microbome has been decimated. Could be build up of toxins.

Stress is also another factor. If I don't sleep properly or go through serious and prolonged stress, I get Eczema flare ups.

The itch is bone deep so sleeping at night is near impossible so get some antihistamine tablets and cut your nails short. Sleep and rest as much as possible including naps.


Be careful with the advice to use some topical creams which contain potent steroids because of Topical Steroid Withdrawal is a vicious cycle and your body will become addicted.

Do your own research and see what works for you. Some swear by the carnivore diet or fasting bleach baths or having a dip at the beach or sea or cold showers etc.



Consult with a dermatologist. Avoid harsh soaps and creams. Try E45, Cera Ve or Cetaphil or Aqaphor or Doublebase.

Re: This Skin Infection Is Killing My Joy Everyday by Saviola86: 5:56am On Jun 11, 2024
What you are suffering from is called Microfilaria and it is not a well known sickness in Nigeria even though over 250 million people are infected with it yearly in Africa.

I have had my own fair share of it and I can tell you that it is frustrating and depressing.

Microfilaria is transmitted by mosquitoes or black flies. When an infected mosquito bites you, it deposits the filaria larvae into your skin which develops and moves into the bloodstream and feeds on it then reproduces millions of other larvae.

If microfilaria is left untreated it can cause severe skin damage, elephantiasis, river blindness, heart and kidney damage.

I was surprised when I discovered that mosquitoes transmit it because I only know of malaria not microfilaria.

My itching was so severe that I almost ran mad. Many doctors and hospitals In Nigeria look at you like a fool when you explain your symptoms to them

For solution

First goto a lab and tell them you want to perform test for microfilaria (please go at night because that is when the worm is active)

Then will take your blood samples and observe it under microscope to check for filaria movements.

If it reads positive goto a good pharmacist
Tell him to give you Mectiza (ivermectin), he will give you about 10 small tablets, take water and swallow all at once.

Once you take Mectiza please don't take it again. Ivermectin is to be taken once a year


After taking the Mectiza, purchase cenocide cup (full cup) take 3 morning, 3 afternoon 3 night

Buy antibiotics like Doxycycline and drink along.

Buy tydineal and rub on your body.

Be diligent with your drugs do not skip any.

Your skin will be cleared check my profile I made a post about mine
Re: This Skin Infection Is Killing My Joy Everyday by LawalTaye1: 6:06am On Jun 11, 2024
Make sure you also use the Nizoral tablet. I had similar issue in the past and only used just a sachet with 10 tablet.
dopedan:
Op i used to have this, forget tablets, it will take a lot of time to work, go to a good pharmacy and buy nizoral cream, it is small and costly but if you rub it everyday for a month it will clear, buy 2 or 3 tubes of the cream depending on ur budget, your condition is called tinea versicolor, it is a common fungai infection,you can confirm it if it itches after you bath?
Re: This Skin Infection Is Killing My Joy Everyday by adieora(f): 6:12am On Jun 11, 2024
Looks like Pityriasis versicolor,a Fungal infection. But ketoconazole shampoo. Apply it on your skin from head to toe. Leave it on the skin from 10minutes and then rinse off. Do this for 5-7days.
I saw someone say you should take ketoconazole injection. Don't do it. It is highly toxic and will damage your liver. It is is safer topically.
