I'm dealing with a fungal infection, and I'm really unsure about whether it's safe to use soap in the affected areas, specifically around the groin and anal ring. What should I do?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Yes, you can use antifungal soap in the affected areas like the groin and anal ring surrounding area. You can use a soap containing ketoconazole or terbinafine. Make sure to lather the soap and leave it on the skin for a few minutes before rinsing off. Use it twice daily for best results.

I'm dealing with hair loss and I'm wondering if it's safe to use both hair serum and minoxidil at the same time? I'm concerned about whether they might interact negatively or if one could cancel out the others effects. Do you think using them together would be beneficial, and if not, should I stick to just one of them?
