Skin infections can be caused by bacteria, fungi, or viruses, leading to rashes, itching, blisters, or discomfort. At Janagond Skin & Dental Clinic, Vijayapura, we provide accurate diagnosis and effective treatment for all types of infectious skin conditions.
Infectious skin diseases are common and may present in many forms—from mild irritation to painful or spreading rashes. They are usually caused by bacteria (such as boils and cellulitis), fungi (like ringworm and athlete’s foot), or viruses (such as warts and herpes). Some infections may spread quickly if untreated, while others can become chronic or recurrent.
At Janagond Skin & Dental Clinic, Vijayapura, we emphasize the importance of early consultation to identify the type and cause of infection. Our dermatology team provides individualized care, which may include:
Topical and oral medications to control bacterial, fungal, or viral growth.
Minor procedures for the removal of warts or infected tissue when needed.
Hygiene and preventive guidance to reduce the risk of recurrence or spreading to others.
Supportive care for chronic or resistant infections.
Since infections can look similar but have very different causes, a professional diagnosis is essential to avoid complications and ensure quick recovery. Our approach combines effective treatment with preventive advice, so patients can regain healthy, infection-free skin.
