Sporotrichosis fungal infection

I have been suffering from Sporotrichosis fungal infection along with staphylococcus bacterial infection in my figures. The anti-biotic helps me reduce the wounds / open sores specifically caused by itching or after pus coming out, but of no use to cure the fungal infection.
Facing the problem since last 5 ~ 6 months and seeking help to cure the same completely.
Please help.

Thanks.

Try SULPHUR 12C three times a day for some days till you see a change in the condition.

As soon as the change is seen, bring down the dose to 2 a day till it heals significantly.

No food or water one hour before or after the dose.

One dose would be 3 drops in some water.

Thanks you very much,, I have started taking Sulphur. Will post you back once I see improvement.
Thanks once again.
 
souvikbanerjee 9 years ago
As I mentioned I started taking sulphur and saw improvement in 3 ~ 4 days as it happened when I took drugs earlier. I reduced the dose to 2 as you mentioned. Just wanted to mention that I couldn't take sulphur for 3 days as I had stomach upset after I reduced the dose.
Now I was continuing sulphur till yesterday but the effect is same as before. The infection is coming back again, relapsed.
What do you suggest? I am travelling right now and not carrying any medicine with me.
 
souvikbanerjee 9 years ago
Take 3 doses of SULPHUR 12C per day as before for some days. If improvement starts, its fine, else go to the next higher potency of 30C once a day for a few days and then stop to see the reaction.

Thanks for replying. I'll go with Sulphur 30 and will post you updates.
 
souvikbanerjee 9 years ago
After I started taking Sulphur 30 the entire infection lapsed extravagantly. I don't think it was due to Sulphur 30, may be because there was a gap of 3 ~ 4 days when I didn't take any medicine.
Yesterday the situation was extreme and back to one when I was detected Streptococcus bacterial infection along with Sporotrichosis fungal infection.
It was so bad and painful that I had to take Amoxicillin and Vitamin E. I had also used another antibacterial lotion on the wound, was not able to type using keyboard.
What do you suggest?

Thanking you for being with me throughout.

Also wanted to post you the following in case these are important.
The day it went absolutely wrong, two days before that I was feeling good with my fingers in hot water, with the bacterial infection being spread out I was not being able to touch hot water even was feeling comfortable with cold water.
 
souvikbanerjee 9 years ago
Are you taking the full course of Amox? In that case you need to complete the course and wait for its result. In case the infection relapsed, we can again take the case for homeopathic treatment.

For now, since you are on Amox, SULPHUR won't work at all.
 
rishimba 9 years ago
I have started taking Amoxicillin and I hope it would be better to complete the course.
But I know last time when I had the Amoxicillin course it appeared to be okay and I felt well, but after an week or so it lapsed again. So do I start taking Sulphur after completing that course? Is there any gap necessary between the Amoxicillin course completion and Sulphur start date?
 
souvikbanerjee 9 years ago
You cannot start homeo treatment just after completing the course of any anti-biotic. You need to wait for some two weeks and let the chemicals slowly go out of your system.

You can start Sulphur if the condition reelapses.
