Hello,

My piggy Robert has fungus that he developed after a week of him being new at my house.
(I mistakengly bought him and his brother form a pet store....now i know better! shame on me).

I've been applying monistat with a q-tip daily for two weeks now. The spot above his eye doesn't look super bad as it did first day.

So he's healing nicely.

But it is taking long time.
Does anyone have recommendations of other pharmacy over the counter stuff i can use that might help with the fungus much quicker?

Also how long do ya'll think fungus lasts?

Fungus doesn't heal quickly. Just keep applying the medicine, even after the hair starts growing back.

That said, Lotrimin is generally more effective than Monistat.
