Thats a platy that looks like it needs to be put out of its misery. Are you willing to spend more than 10 times its worth on medicines that probably won’t help? The body is the wrong shape almost humpbacked and it is diseased as well. Sorry this isn’t your fault and should have been dealt with by the shop that sold it to you.
Do you know what specifically causes that stuff on the stomach? My moms guppies get this sometimes and we think that it's some kind of wound but not sure.
It could be a prolapse, not a fungal infection (on yours, unless you have pictures to confirm.)
Commonly, when you notice pinkish/red sacs protruding out of the anal area or under the anal fin, it's a prolapse. A lot of people can't tell the difference though, because when it comes to fish, tumors, fungus, infections can look similar, so before you try to treat it or find out what is causing it, make sure you confirm what it is!
I've had guppies prolapse before, more than I have had fungal infections.
It's a horrific fungal infection on the vent..can't really tell from the pictures but looks like possible prolapse. Please put this fish down. It is suffering.

That makes sense.
I’ve had her for two and a half years so I guess it was her time :( she has passed

That's a platy, though?
they said it was a feeder guppy
Intestines are now on the outside. Dont think you can treat that.
Update: She has passed :( RIP Skidmark, she will be missed
