I'm a guy dealing with a yeast-like smell from my groin for a few months now. I've tried jock itch cream, but it's just not working. I shower twice daily and keep clean, but this odor is persistent. What could be causing this, and how can I get rid of it?

I recommend using an antifungal medication such as Clotrimazole cream twice a day for at least 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take Fluconazole tablets once a day for 7-14 days to help treat the infection from the inside. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, wear loose-fitting clothing, and avoid sugary foods that can worsen yeast infections. If the symptoms persist, consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation.

Hey, I've been dealing with a really oily face and it's becoming quite frustrating. I recently came across Brevoxyl creamy wash and was wondering if I could use it daily instead of my regular soap to help with the oiliness. Is it safe to use every day, or could it cause any issues with my skin? Would love some guidance!

Yes you can use it no problem

I've been using Panderm Plus cream for over a year, but I would stop and start using it again. Initially, my skin was clear, but then I started getting one or two pimples. I saw a doctor who told me to stop using the cream because it has steroids. Now I'm using Derma Dew soap and Kojic cream for the pimple marks. I'm really worried about the effects of the steroid on my skin. Can you tell me more about the side effects, and will the new products help with the pimple marks?

Clinsol gel for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks.
