Hey, I've been using terbinaforce plus cream on my upper thighs for the last two weeks and the infection seems to have cleared up about a week ago. Should I keep using it even though it looks like it's cured? Just wondering what's best to do here.

It is not necessary to continue applying Terbinaforce plus cream if the infection has already been cured for a week. You can stop using the cream now.

View allI've been using Virovir 500 for treating my Herpes and it's helped a lot with the infection, but I still have this annoying itching above my left ear and behind my ears. Someone mentioned Sofinox might be a good solution, but I'm a bit worried. Is it safe to use it around the hair without worrying about any side effects, like hair fall? Would appreciate some guidance.
Sofinox cream contains Miconazole which is an antifungal medication. It is safe to apply around the hairs above the ear for itching. Make sure to apply a thin layer and gently massage it into the skin. There should be no significant side effects when used as directed. It is unlikely to cause hair fall later on. Apply it twice a day for 1-2 weeks for best results.

I've been using an IPL hair removal device at home and I started noticing that after a few sessions, two new moles appeared and an existing mole got darker and looked different. So I stopped using it after that. It's been almost a year since then but I'm still worried. Should I be concerned about these changes?
Thats clearly due to allergy,you are allergic to hair removal substances avoiding them is the only solution that you have and visit Dermatologist for appropriate management
