I'm really struggling with a persistent fungal infection between my legs that's been bothering me for the past few months. I've tried using antifungal creams like Soframycin, Fourderm, and Betnovate N, and while they seemed to help initially, the infection always returns after a few days, especially around my private parts. Can you suggest any stronger or more effective antifungal treatments that might help clear this up for good? It's starting to really concern me.

I'm using Ultra Aegis sunscreen right now and I'm wondering if it's really effective. Will it help reduce the tan and protect my skin from the sun, or should I consider switching to a better sunscreen? Any suggestions would be great!

Question

I'm using the Truderma Acne Kit that my doctor prescribed because I've been breaking out on my face. I think the night cream might not be working for me since it's making the spots darker instead of helping them. Is this normal or should I be concerned?
