Doctors detect rare fungal infection in Pimpri woman
“The patient is now able to do household chores and her quality of life has improved tremendously,” the doctors said.But how the woman contracted the infection. She used to just stare blankly into space,” Shrea Kapoor, a resident doctor of DY Patil Medical College and Hospital in Pimpri. And perhaps this is what a 35-year-old Pimpri woman would have thought before the infection in her skin progressed, leaving her almost bed-ridden and dispirited.It all started about a year ago when the woman developed pea-sized nodules over her neck and chest. Kapoor, along with another resident doctors Sakshi Sitaniya, played a vital role in relieving the woman of her agony.The resident doctors, both pursuing their post-graduation (MD) in dermatology , said the woman had a lot of dark-coloured nodules that were rupturing and oozing pus without any pressure or movement. That is nothing to worry about is what most doctors will tell you.
