I've got an infection between the third and fourth toes on my left foot. It's been really dry and painful sometimes. I've been dealing with it for a couple of years now. I've tried oral meds from general physicians and even ointments like terbinafine, candiderma, and paxoderm. It's really annoying. Any suggestions on what I could do to finally get rid of it?

Question

I'm dealing with some dry skin and cracks on my scrotum, and there's a sticky fluid coming out. This has been happening for the past two days. I've also been having issues with a fungal infection that caused red rashes on my thighs, which I'm already getting treatment for. I'm kind of worried about why this new symptom has come up. Could it be related to the fungal infection treatment, or is it something entirely different? Any advice on what I should do next would be really helpful.

I've got oily skin and my doctor recommended Shadowez SPF30 sunscreen. The thing is, whenever I put it on, my skin just gets even oilier. Can you suggest a better sunscreen for my oily skin?
