I'm dealing with acne and was wondering if taking azithral 500mg would help clear it up. Is this a good idea or should I consider something else?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
I don't recommend using Azithral 500mg tablet for acne treatment. Instead, you can try using topical treatments like benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. For severe cases, you may consider consulting a dermatologist who can prescribe oral medications like isotretinoin.

View allI'm struggling with these really itchy rashes on my trunk and hands. I initially tried taking fexodine 180 mg twice a day but didn't see any improvement. Then, I switched to prednisolone 20 combined with cetirizine, but it's been five days and there's still no relief. Is there anything else I should try or any advice you could give? I'm getting pretty worried about this situation.

I've been dealing with these really itchy red circles on my skin, and it's kind of freaking me out. The edges of these circles have these little boil-like bumps, and when they dry out, there's this white flaky stuff. Does this sound familiar to you, and what do you think it might be? I'm really hoping for some advice on what could be causing this and what I should do next.
It sounds like you may be experiencing a fungal infection, such as ringworm. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer to the affected area twice a day for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 2-4 weeks to help clear up the infection. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to prevent further irritation.

I'm really worried because I recently changed my wedding bangles, and now I have these small red boils all over my arms. They itch really badly, and I'm not sure what's going on. Could this be an allergic reaction to the bangles? What should I do to relieve the itching and get rid of the bumps?
Could be a sign of an allergic reaction or skin infection. To help with the itching and treat the boils, you can try using an over-the-counter antihistamine like Cetirizine (10mg) once daily. Additionally, applying a topical antibiotic cream like Neosporin or Bacitracin on the affected areas twice a day can help prevent infection and promote healing. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
