I recently had a PET CT Scan with FDG and Contrast, and I've noticed red itchy rashes all over my body the next day. Could this be an allergic reaction to the nuclear medicine or contrast used for the scan? Any advice on how to treat these rashes would be really appreciated. I had the scan two days ago.

I'm wondering if Clobeta GM is good for treating pimples and dark spots, or if it's meant for something else. Could you explain what exactly this ointment is used for?

Clobeta GM ointment is not typically used for pimples or dark spots. It is commonly used to treat various skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis. The ointment contains Clobetasol, Gentamicin, and Miconazole which help reduce inflammation, itching, and redness associated with these skin conditions. It is important to use this ointment as directed by your healthcare provider to avoid any potential side effects.

I'm worried because I think a fire ant might have bitten my testicle sacks. They're swollen now, and at first, it was really itchy, but that part has stopped. Should I be concerned about the swelling? What should I do next?

Surgeon opinion is advised to the patient.
