I'm dealing with this fungal infection for the past two months. It seems to get better when I'm on medication, but the moment I finish the course, the infection comes right back. Is there something I might be missing or doing wrong? It's getting really frustrating and I could use some advice on what to do next.

View allI'm noticing a dark horizontal line on my nose and I'm not sure what's causing it. I've been using a Clean & Clear blackhead scrub, but it doesn't seem to be making much of a difference. Could this be an allergy or something else? I've seen other people with similar lines, and I've attached a photo for reference. Any insights would be really helpful!
That could be Hyperpigmentation, visit Dermatologist for evaluation and appropriate treatment.

I'm dealing with allergies and these really bothersome skin rashes. Plus, I've got these painful oozing bumps on my scalp. It seems like I react to a lot of good stuff and it gets worse in hot, humid weather. Can you help me understand what's going on?
Allergies and skin rashes along with oozing scalp bumps can be indicative of a condition such as atopic dermatitis or contact dermatitis. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try using over-the-counter antihistamines like Claritin (loratadine) or Zyrtec (cetirizine) to manage your allergies. For the skin rashes, you can apply hydrocortisone cream to reduce inflammation. Additionally, for the oozing scalp bumps, you may benefit from using a medicated shampoo containing ketoconazole or selenium sulfide, such as Nizoral shampoo, to help with scalp inflammation. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions for each medication.
