I'm dealing with a really annoying fungal infection on the inner thigh of both my legs. It's been so itchy, and now the skin's peeling off. What's causing this, and how can I make it stop?

Probable diagnosis is fungal infection. Candid cream for local application is advised for 2 weeks, along with tab levocetrizine 10 mg orally,daily for 5 days is advised to the patient.

View allI've been bitten by mosquitoes a few weeks ago, and I'm starting to see rashes on my face. I'm really worried. Could this be related to dengue? Do the rashes usually appear before the fever sets in, or is it the other way around? What are the other symptoms I should watch out for?
dengue rash will be after fever cycle,and is usually seen on abdomen and legs and hands,as u say you have rash over face,needs physical evaluation visit Dermatologist for appropriate management

I've been using tretin 0.025 cream for the past two months on a doctor's recommendation and while I've seen some good results, I'm still struggling with clogged pores and now it seems like my pore size has increased too. I'm feeling really frustrated. Could you recommend a good tretinoin gel that might give me better results?
As suggested by one of the doctors, you can try using Retin-A Micro gel 0.04% for better results. Apply a pea-sized amount on the affected area once daily in the evening. This gel formulation may help in reducing clogged pores and improving the overall texture of your skin. Remember to use sunscreen during the day while using this product.

I've been having some skin issues, and I'm starting to get worried. I went for a medical test in Saudi Arabia, and it came back showing TPHAVDRL reactive. After that, I consulted a dermatologist in Hyderabad, and they did a biopsy to confirm the results, which were still reactive. They recommended penicillin injections, which I took, and then did a retest 8 weeks later. But, the test is still showing reactive. I'm not sure if this diagnosis is accurate or if it's something that can actually be cured. Besides this, I've had some non-itchy, painless rashes on my skin since around 2009. They appeared when I traveled to the USA. I've shown them to a doctor there, but I'm still concerned. Could there be something I'm missing or should be doing differently?
This looks like Syphilis, penicillin is the drug of choice for this condition and it's curable no need to worry follow as your Dermatologist advised you some cases need long-term treatment.
