I've been dealing with ringworm and I'm curious if using itch guard cream would actually help with it. Does it work effectively, or should I be looking at other treatments?

View allI've been dealing with a fungal infection and now I've noticed some stretch marks appearing too. It's really been bothering me and I'm not sure what to do about it. Could you give me some advice on how to treat both the infection and the marks? It's been really uncomfortable and I'm worried about it.
Stretch marks happen only if you use steroid creams. You may be suffering from tinea cruris which is fungal infection of the inner thighs, groin and buttocks area. It is also called jock itch. It can be treated by taking four to six weeks of anti fungal treatment which includes tablets along with creams. Do not use soap over that area. Mistreatment with over the counter Steroid containing creams like fourderm, panderm, quadriderm, dermi5, betnovate, candid b etc lead to repeated case of recurrence and also side effects due to application. Do not use steroid containing combination creams.

I recently discovered a bumpnode on my left breast just below the nipple. It was last Tuesday evening. The next day, I noticed a small dot-sized white pus mouth that gradually grew to 45 mm in diameter and ended up breaking on its own during the night on Friday while I was sleeping. Since then, I've been taking Augmentin 625 and applying Sumag twice a day. I'm kinda worried about what's going on and wondering if there's anything else I should be doing or if it's something serious. Can you tell me if all this sounds normal, or should I be concerned?
Yes that would help you ,if its not working visit surgeon for appropriate management,and you can also add Tab Enzomac plus for better healing
