Question

I've never had ringworm before and now it's in the groin area. It's really worrying me. What are the best creams and tablets to treat this? I'm not sure where to start and would love some guidance.

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?

Question

I've been dealing with post-acne pigmentation on my cheeks, forehead, and chin, and my doctor recommended using Glambak gel. It's been about a month now, and I've noticed some reduction in dark spots and an improvement in my skin tone, which is great. But I'm a bit worried about whether I should keep using the cream long-term to maintain even skin tone. Will my skin tone go darker if I stop using it? I do use sunscreen regularly, but I'm just a bit confused about what the best approach might be. Can you help me figure this out?
