I'm a 31-year-old woman from India, and I'm getting married in just two months. I'm really worried about some skin issues. I've got dark underarms and there's some kind of black color or pigmentation around my private parts and inner thighs. I don't know if it's an allergy or something else. Also, I have boil marks on my bums. And my lips, which used to be pink, are starting to get dark from the lower side and the middle. Can you recommend any cream or tablets that might help me clear these up quickly?

I'm dealing with a fungal infection that's been sticking around for about three years. I'm really into non-veg food, and I'm wondering if it's okay for me to continue eating it with my condition. If it's fine, could you suggest what kind of non-veg options would be best for me? I'm a bit confused and would really appreciate your advice!

There is no indication that you are not supposed to eat non veg if you have Fungal infection,avoid foods that your allergic to, otherwise you can have nonveg food of your choice but in a healthy way and limited quantity.

I'm trying to figure out the best time to apply Candid clotrimazole cream for treating Tinea versicolor around my shoulder and chest. Is it better to use it before or after a shower, before sleeping, or maybe early in the morning before sunlight? Also, I've been taking one Fole 150 tablet every week for the past five weeks without using any creams or lotions. Should I keep taking Fole 150 tablets, or is it time to stop now?

Ideally it is applied during bed time ,follow your doctors advice
