I'm really worried about this ringworm situation. It's spread to different parts of my body, and I've tried everything from fluconazole to tarabinafine and all sorts of creams. Right now, I'm using something called zalim lotion. Is there something I might be missing or another treatment I should consider?

Fluconazole and terbinafine are commonly used antifungal medications for ringworm. In addition to these, using topical antifungal creams can also be helpful. Zalim lotion contains clobetasol propionate which is a steroid used to reduce inflammation and itching associated with skin conditions. For better results, continue using Zalim lotion as directed and also consider adding an antifungal cream containing clotrimazole or miconazole to your treatment regimen. Make sure to apply the medications consistently and keep the affected areas clean and dry.

I'm really struggling with exfoliative cheilitis that I've had for about 12 years. The entire layer of skin on my upper and lower lips keeps peeling, and it's so sore and red underneath. I've got loads of Fordyce spots on my top lip too. I've tried attaching some pictures of my lips before. Nothing seems to work. I've tried almost every medication - tacrolimus, clobetasol, mometasone, Calendula ointment, and even Sebamed lip balm. None of these topical treatments have made any difference. I even went through a multivitamin course, hoping it would help, but no luck. I tried leaving my lips alone without peeling them, but that just made things worse, with them becoming more inflamed. The skin turns white when it gets wet and peels every day. I've seen many dermatologists who've prescribed creams, but nothing has worked so far. Is there any kind of surgical option that might help since the treatments just aren't doing anything?

I've had these bald patches over my left and right ear for about four years now, and they're really bothering me. They're oval and completely bald, and nothing I've tried so far has made them go away. I haven't done anything about it for the past two years, but it seems like the bald patches are slowly getting bigger. Do you have any advice on what might be causing this or how I can treat it?
