What Are the Types of Fungal Infections, and How Can They Be Treated Naturally? - #15500
I recently started learning about fungal infections, and I was surprised by how many different types exist. From what I understand, fungal infections are caused by an overgrowth of fungi in the body or on the skin, but what are the most common types of fungal infections and their symptoms? I read that ringworm, athlete’s foot, jock itch, yeast infections, and nail fungus are some of the most well-known fungal infections, but how do you differentiate between them, and what are the best ways to treat them? One thing that concerns me is whether fungal infections keep coming back even after treatment. What are the best ways to prevent recurrence, and do dietary changes help control fungal overgrowth in the body? Are there any Ayurvedic or natural treatments that help with fungal infections? I’ve heard that Neem, Tea Tree Oil, and Aloe Vera have antifungal properties—do these actually help clear fungal infections without side effects? If anyone has dealt with fungal infections, what treatments worked best for you? Did antifungal creams, home remedies, or medications provide the best relief?
