I recently had my first-ever full-body wax and followed it up with an oil massage. When I looked up post-waxing care, I realized I shouldn't have gone for the massage. During it, my body felt really warm. Now I'm kind of freaking out because I've still got rashes and redness on my arms and chest, and the pores on my legs seem open. Is this because of the massage I did after waxing? I'm really worried about what's going on with my skin. What should I do?

No need to worry, take rest and have patience those rashes could be due to Allergic reaction, stay hydrated and do not do both at the same time.

I'm concerned because I've been using Beta GC ointment for around two years for itching and pimples on my face, based on my doctor's advice. I've been applying it once every 8 to 10 days, but if I stop, I get these small pimple-like bumps and the itching starts up again. Now I'm really worried because I can't find the tube in the market anymore. What should I do?

I'm dealing with a skin fungal infection, and it's been really itchy lately, especially at night. I was thinking about using Cloben G cream, but I'm not sure if it's the right choice or if it's a steroid. Could you recommend a good topical antifungal cream? I could really use your advice because it's getting tough to sleep with all the itching.

Clotrimazole is an antifungal medication, while Beclomethasone is a corticosteroid. It is not recommended to use steroid-containing creams for fungal infections without a doctor's prescription, as they can sometimes worsen the infection or cause other side effects. For fungal infections on the skin and private parts, I recommend using Terbinafine cream. You can apply Terbinafine cream twice a day on the affected areas. It is a potent antifungal medication that can help relieve itching and treat the fungal infection effectively. Remember to keep the affected areas clean and dry, and avoid tight clothing to promote healing.
