Cryotherapy for treatment of sporotrichosis—rapid cure with adjuvant cryotherapy: case report

As there is possibility of prolonged use of over-the-counter antifungal medication, lack of regular follow up and lack of laboratory monitoring, especially in the rural parts of Nepal, therapy should be tailored toward onsite physical treatment with cryotherapy in addition to oral antifungals, which can be cost effective and with decreased systemic side-effects. With proper diagnosis, overall prevalence of the disease can be estimated and clinical therapeutic trials can be performed with timely prevention of dreadful systemic complications.

Abstract

As there is possibility of prolonged use of over-the-counter antifungal medication, lack of regular follow up and lack of laboratory monitoring, especially in the rural parts of Nepal, therapy should be tailored toward onsite physical treatment with cryotherapy in addition to oral antifungals, which can be cost effective and with decreased systemic side-effects. With proper diagnosis, overall prevalence of the disease can be estimated and clinical therapeutic trials can be performed with timely prevention of dreadful systemic complications.
