Fungal, Bacterial & Viral Skin Infections Treatment in Bengaluru
Accurate Diagnosis & Complete Care for Itchy, Painful and Recurring Skin Infections
Skin infections are very common in Bengaluru. Humid weather, sweat, closed shoes and shared spaces like gyms and pools make it easy for germs to grow on the skin. These infections can be fungal (ringworm, athlete’s foot, nail fungus), bacterial (boils, folliculitis, impetigo) or viral (warts, molluscum, herpes).
The tricky part is that all three can look the same in the early stage. Using the same cream for every rash especially a steroid cream often makes it come back worse. At Skin Cache, we first find the exact cause with a proper skin examination and simple tests where needed, then treat it with the right medicine for the right duration, along with easy tips to stop it from returning

Frequently Asked Questions

The most common reasons are stopping medicine too early, using steroid creams, and not treating other family members who have it. Sweat, tight clothes and shared towels also keep the infection alive.

Many are. Ringworm, impetigo, warts and molluscum can spread through touch, shared towels, clothes and footwear. Following simple hygiene steps during treatment protects your family.
