I've been dealing with this annoying itch on my right butt cheek. It's kind of embarrassing to see a doctor in person about it. Could you suggest an ointment or gel that might help me get rid of it?

I recommend using hydrocortisone cream 1% for the itching on your right butt cheek. Apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected area twice a day for up to 7 days. Make sure to wash your hands before and after applying the cream.

Question

I've been having some trouble since I got a facial and waxing done. My face has these really bad patches now, and the left cheek feels super tight. I'm starting to think it might be a chemical burn. I tried using ice since last night, but it hasn't really made a difference. Could you let me know what else I should do?

Question

I've been dealing with really itchy skin on my leg for about a year now, and it's led to these black patches forming. On top of that, I've started having some breathing problems and I'm worried it might be an allergy reaction to cold. Could these symptoms be related, and should I be concerned about the patches and breathing issues?
