I'm dealing with a pretty uncomfortable situation here. I recently got over jock itch by using Clotrimazol Candid dusting powder, but now I've developed a small, pea-sized pus spot in my groin area. It burst open last night, and now Ive got this exposed wound that makes it tough to walk. I tried using Dettol Antiseptic liquid to clean it up, but it sometimes has a bad smell. Im really worried about it getting infected, so Id like to know what I can do to help it heal. Any advice?

I'm concerned about these tablets my sister is taking every day. She's 25 and I'm not sure what they're for. I've included a photo of the ingredients, but I'm feeling a bit worried. Could you help me understand what they might be used for?

Dermat opinion is advised to the patient.

I've been using cadiderma cream for a month now and switched to dermiford cream about a week ago. But I still have these red itchy spots and the itching just won't stop. What could be causing this, and is there something else I should be doing?
