Question

I'm really struggling with jock itch and it's been about 6 months now. I've been using apple cider vinegar on the area, and while it's helped a bit, it's not gone completely. Now I'm getting these boils popping up there and even on my face one after the other. Can someone tell me what treatment will actually get rid of this for good?

I'm using hand sanitizer to clean my earphones, and now I'm a bit worried. Are they safe to put in my ears? My ears have been really itchy lately. And should I be doing something different to disinfect my earphones safely?

Question

I'm noticing some white patches on my fingers and I've had them for a couple of months now. They don't seem to be spreading, which is a bit of a relief, but its still worrying me. After visiting a doctor, he told me it's vitiligo, but I'm not completely convinced. He prescribed some medications like Viterma capsules, Dermadew cream, Tacmod forte, Melanocyl ointment, Placentrex gel, and HHSONE cream. I've attached a few pictures for reference. Does this sound like vitiligo to you, and do you think these meds can actually help with it?

Question

I'm thinking about using Faiza skin lightening cream and I'm wondering if it's okay to apply it every night before bed. Is it safe to do that, and will it really make my skin glow in just a week? I'm a bit concerned about any potential side effects.
