[Practical treatments of suppurative skin mycoses and allergic skin mycoses due to Candida].

In the inflammatory mycoses the author recommends an oral treatment consisting in griseofulvin, and, in case of severe inflammation, prednisone per os at the same time with a local treatment (painting with alcohol iodate 1%, followed by the application of a cream with cortisone associated with an antimicrobial antibiotic and pincer epilation). This way the evaluation is 3-4 weeks shorter and the scars and alopecia are avoided. In the allergic manifestations due to Candida (urticaria, eczema, itching), after discussing their peculiarities the author recommends the desensitization with an extract of Candida cultivated right from patient's primitive focus. This type of desensitization is twice specific: specific anti-Candida and at the same time specific to patient's own strain, even in the case of saprophyte Candida. The very good results obtained after 2-3 months of treatment are presented.
