Skin Infection
My wife (aged 34) is facing skin infection in hand fingers. Earlier it was red skin and itchiness but now there are minor cuts which have come up automatically.
It is hurting when she is doing household cores like washing utensils and clothes when in touch with soap solution.
Previous medicines (as per earlier advice) – Applying Futibact Ointment twice daily but no major relief.
Kindly advice some good medicine/ointment.
