Is the candiziole cream you are using Fluconazole or Clotrimazole? Fluconazole is contraindicated in pregnancy. On the contrary, Clotrimazole is safe for pregnant women. Be sure also to wash only with very mild soap and water 2x a day. If symptoms persist, please consult with your OB-GYN for further evaluation and management.

Hi, I would recommend you to get a serum electrolyte done of your dad. If sodium levels comes out to be low then you have the cause and you will have to add a bit of salt in his diet and he will improve. You can consult a urologist since all these problems you had were after the surgery. Feel free to ask more question. ...
