I've got a cut on my leg and have been using povirexm cream for about 5 days, but it doesn't seem to be getting any better. I'm just wondering what I could do to help the skin heal over the cut more effectively. Any advice?

I've got these ringworms on my penis and I'm really worried about it. Can you recommend an oral antifungal I should take for this issue?

I'm a bit confused about a medicine called DAZIT that I was given for itching. I've heard it's usually used for depression. Is it actually safe to take it for itching? Would love some clarity on whether it's the right choice.
