I'm dealing with a pretty stubborn rash on my inner thigh that I think might be a ringworm. I've tried using Itchguard and Candid B cream, but they don't seem to be helping much. Is there a different antifungal cream or medicine you could recommend for better results?

I'm having a tough time after my fissure surgery. The doctor gave me potassium permanganate and told me to sit in warm water with it for 20 minutes. It seemed okay at first, but when I went back to work and walked around, the skin outside my anus started to burn really badly. Now, it's happening again and again. What should I do? Can you help me figure this out?

After fissure surgery, to alleviate the burning sensation, apply a topical analgesic cream or ointment, take regular sitz baths with potassium permanganate as directed, and consider using a donut-shaped cushion to reduce pressure while sitting,

I've had this butt rash for around three months now, and I think it's been sticking around because of how it's been treated. The pharmacy gave me hydrocortisone cream and these fexofenadine hydrochloride pills to go with it. I'm putting the cream on just once a day and taking one pill daily too. The rash is bumpy and really itchy, plus it feels like the skin is getting kind of dry. What should I do?

Stopusing those medicines and visit Dermatologist for evaluation and appropriate management
