Navel is flaky, slightly itchy, red, sometimes has white discharge
Navel is flaky, slightly itchy, red, sometimes has white discharge. Doctor prescribe me Chloramphenicol previously and heal. So try Chloramphenicol again, it does stop the discharge but other symptoms still present. Went pharmacy to get Clotrimazole.
Before applying Clotrimazole cream, my navel doesn’t leak that much. After applying Clotrimazole cream for the third time, it seems like it leak more fluid out. Why?
