Question

I've been dealing with this rash on my butt for about 2-3 months and I'm not sure what's causing it or how to get rid of it. I've been using a medication called Itrasis200, but I'm wondering if there's something else that might help or if I should try a different approach. Do you have any advice on what could be causing this or other treatments I could consider?

For the rash on your butt, you can try using a topical antifungal cream like Clotrimazole (Canesten) twice a day for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine (Zyrtec) 10mg once daily to help with itching. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and wear loose-fitting clothing to prevent further irritation.

Question

how to remove acne marks

Question

I'm dealing with a skin issue that started with white patches about two weeks ago. When I visited my doctor, I was advised to use melanocyl ointment. After using it for a week, Ive noticed a new problem: my skin is now developing dark patches instead. I'm really concerned about why this is happening. Is it normal for the skin to react this way to the ointment, or should I be worried about an allergic reaction or side effect?

Question

I used apple cider vinegar on my face overnight and it burned my skin. Now the skin is flaking off and I've got this dark brown spot left. Any idea what cream I could use to help restore the color? I'm feeling a bit worried and would really appreciate some advice.
