Question

I've been dealing with an infection for quite some time now and I've tried several creams like Dermikem OC and Clocip but nothing seems to be working. Could you please suggest the right treatment for this? I'm really worried and could use some guidance.

It seems like you have a fungal infection. I would recommend using a combination of Terbinafine cream (brand name Lamisil) and Clotrimazole cream (brand name Lotrimin). Apply Terbinafine cream twice a day and Clotrimazole cream once a day on the affected area for 2-4 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to help the medication work effectively.

I'm dealing with some pretty frustrating scalp itching and I'm using a mix of three different medicated shampoos as my doctor recommended. They also prescribed Onabet SD and Onabet lotion. But I'm wonderingis it okay if I start using MINTOP5 on the days when I'm not applying the Onabet lotions? Would that be alright to add into my routine without causing any issues?
