I have these large warts above my lower back and they're really bothering me. Is there any medication or treatment that can get rid of them without needing surgery? I'm worried about how big they are and would prefer to avoid an operation if possible.

I'm dealing with some serious itching in my butt crack, and it's driving me crazy. Living in Mumbai, the humidity makes me sweat a lot, especially down there. I also have thick body hair, which doesnt help. Even touching it lightly causes a painful burning feeling. Any advice on what could help?

I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole (brand name Canesten) twice a day in the affected area. Keep the area clean and dry, and wear loose cotton underwear to allow for better air circulation. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine (brand name Zyrtec) to help with the itching. If the symptoms persist, consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
