SSF from Left Palm Price in Bangladesh

What is SSF from Left Palm?

SSF (Superficial Scraping for Fungi) from the left palm is a diagnostic test used to identify fungal infections on the skin of the palm. The procedure involves scraping the affected area to collect a sample, which is then cultured in a laboratory to detect any fungal organisms, such as dermatophytes (e.g., Trichophyton species) or Candida.

This test is often used to diagnose conditions like tinea (ringworm) or other fungal skin infections. The cultured sample allows fungi to grow, and sensitivity testing may be done to identify the most effective antifungal treatment.

Results typically take a few days to a week.

What to expect & how to prepare

SSF from Left Palm is performed at a diagnostic centre or hospital lab. A trained technician collects the required sample (commonly a blood draw, urine sample, swab or an imaging scan, depending on the test) and sends it to the lab for analysis. Most routine tests take only a few minutes to sample, with reports typically ready the same day or within 24–48 hours.

• Fasting: some tests require 8–12 hours of fasting (water is usually allowed). Ask the centre when you book.
• Medication: tell the lab about any medicines or supplements you take, as some can affect results.
• Timing: certain hormone and biochemistry tests are best done in the morning — confirm the recommended time.
• Report: always have a registered doctor interpret your SSF from Left Palm result rather than self-diagnosing.
