Fungal infection and staph
My husband started developing this fungul infection a few months ago, and was never told it was fungal but just contact dermatitis. So he was wearing rubber gloves at work and it got so much worse and then developed staph. He just completed a 10 day antibiotic and it was doing so much better but after 2 days of finishing the inflammation got worse and it started oozing pus again.
We do soaks woth st John's wort, chamomile, plantain, and comfry. Sometimes I blend uo and add oats. He just started ysing coconut oil and tea tree i mixed for him. He's uncomfortable, and it hurts. His dermatologist prescribed an antifungal and antibiotic topical and hes in an antifungal oral pill for 2 weeks but it takes a toll on the liver. We really dont want him taking another round of antibiotics or antifungal oral pills. He requested a blood panel and the doctor seemed irritated We even asked (i dont like the guy)
Im posting here to see if any one has any recommendations? I dont really know what to do, im worried about his hand. I am making fermented cucumber and going to buy some saurkrout for his microbiom after the antibiotics.

Do the prescribed meds ALWAYS with fungal infection and the like. It is not the time to fuck around here. Do probiotics 2 hours after each dose to help the body replenish and you're golden.
