Gandhaka Malahara - #6330
For the past few months, I’ve been struggling with recurring fungal infections on my skin, especially in areas that tend to stay moist, like under my arms and between my toes. I’ve tried various over-the-counter creams, but the results are always temporary. A friend recommended gandhaka malahara as an effective Ayurvedic treatment for skin infections, and I’m curious to learn more about it. From what I understand, gandhaka malahara is a sulfur-based ointment that helps treat bacterial, fungal, and even some inflammatory skin conditions. Does gandhaka malahara work well for chronic fungal infections, or is it more suited for short-term use? Also, how frequently should it be applied, and should I continue using it after the infection has cleared to prevent recurrence? I’ve also read that gandhaka malahara is beneficial for conditions like eczema, scabies, and even psoriasis. While my main concern is the fungal infection, I wonder if gandhaka malahara could also improve overall skin health or reduce inflammation in areas that tend to get red and irritated. One thing I’m unsure about is whether gandhaka malahara has any side effects, such as skin sensitivity or dryness. Should it be used alongside a moisturizer, or is it better applied directly? Additionally, are there any dietary or lifestyle changes that could enhance its effectiveness, like avoiding certain foods or wearing specific fabrics? If anyone has experience using gandhaka malahara, I’d appreciate your insights. How long did it take to see visible results, and were there any precautions you had to follow? I’m eager to resolve this recurring issue and prevent it from coming back.
