View allI've been dealing with dark patches on my inner thighs for about five years now. Theyre really noticeable because there's not much of a gap between my legs, so they rub together and even against my testis when I walk. It's pretty embarrassing, and I'm worried about whether there's anything I can do to lighten the skin or prevent this from happening. Is there something specific causing this, or any treatment youd recommend?
Lulican cream for local application for atleast 2 weeks is advised to the patient.

I'm dealing with really itchy skin, and nothing seems to be working. I've already tried Moxikind CV 625 and Nuforce, but I'm still struggling. Could you tell me what medicine might actually help with this?
The medications you mentioned are antibiotics, which may not be effective for treating itchiness of the skin. For itchy skin, you can try taking an antihistamine such as Cetirizine 10mg once daily. In addition, applying a soothing lotion containing Calamine can also help relieve the itchiness. Make sure to stay hydrated and avoid scratching the affected area to prevent further irritation.

I'm really concerned about a new mole I found behind my left ear. I saw a dermatologist and she told me its not cancerous, thankfully. She gave me a mole removal cream, and I've been using it for a few days now. It looks like it's getting smaller, which is a relief, but it barely itches. Im still worried if there's any risk of cancer. Also, if it completely fades away, should I still be worried down the line?
Thats unusual,visit General Physician for appropriate approach.and maintain balanced diet and healthy lifestyle
