Question

I'm dealing with this really annoying rash that started back in January after intercourse. It was just a rash at first but then turned into ringworm, and I've been on and off with medication. Switched to homeopathy and it seemed to help, but then I had to move to Jaipur for work and ever since, the itching has only gotten worse. What should I do?

I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% twice a day on the affected area. Additionally, taking an oral antifungal medication like Terbinafine 250mg once a day can also help. Make sure to keep the affected area clean and dry, and avoid sharing personal items to prevent spreading the infection.

Question

I've been dealing with acne on my chest and back for a bit now and was wondering if it's okay to use Candid B dusting powder for it. Do you think that would help, or is there something else I should try?

Question

Question

I've been dealing with LPP on my neck, face, and limbs for over a year now, and it just seems like it's getting worse. My face has become really dark, and even though there are no lesions, it looks like severe hyperpigmentation. I'm using sunscreen daily and have been undergoing phototherapy for the past two months with 600mg NBUVB, but it doesn't seem to be helping. In fact, my pigmentation is getting darker, and my skin is so dry that it feels like I can see wrinkles forming. Is there a home remedy or any treatment that can help improve my complexion and skin condition without side effects? Also, should I be applying sunscreen when I go jogging in the morning from 7 to 7:30 AM, especially since my doctor advised me to avoid the sun? Any advice would be appreciated!
