I'm dealing with this skin thing that's kinda like a fungal infection, where I get these red rings. Sometimes it clears up on its own but then comes back. I'm trying to figure out which cream is better for it, Panderm Plus or Zoderm E? Any advice would be awesome!

Based on your description of a recurring fungal infection with red ring-like lesions, both Panderm Plus (clotrimazole + beclomethasone) and Zoderm-E (clotrimazole) can be effective; however, Panderm Plus might be a better option as it combines an antifungal (clotrimazole) with a mild steroid (beclomethasone) to reduce inflammation and itching

I'm really struggling with this itching problem on my skin that I've had for many years. I've been using a soap named Tetmosol, and it helps until the evening, but then the itching comes back. I'm curious if there's anything else I could try or if there's something more to it? It's been quite frustrating dealing with this every day.

It sounds like you may be experiencing a skin condition that requires ongoing management. In addition to using Tetmosol soap, you can also try using a topical corticosteroid cream like Betnovate (Betamethasone) twice a day on the affected areas. Make sure to apply a thin layer and gently rub it in. If the itching persists, you can also take an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine 10mg once daily in the evening to help with the itching. Remember to continue using these medications as directed by a healthcare professional.

I had a bandaid on my finger for a couple of days because of a cut, which seemed to have healed. When I took the bandaid off today though, my finger looked kinda weird. What could be going on? Should I be worried or do something about it?

it's likely that the skin under the band-aid has experienced skin irritation or contact dermatitis, possibly due to adhesive or friction; apply a topical antibiotic ointment and cover with a breathable dressing to promote healing, and consider switching to hypoallergenic band-aids or alternative wound dressings in the future.
