View allI'm taking azithral 500 for my acne and it's been two days, but now I'm dealing with diarrhea because of it. Should I keep taking the antibiotics, or is it better to stop? I'm worried if there might be any other side effects too. What do you suggest?

I've been dealing with Jock itch for a few years now, and it gets really bad during certain seasons. I've been using FourDerm regularly to try and control the itching, but the infection just won't go away. Recently, I've started going for regular morning walks, and as a result, I'm losing some weight. Now the skin around my thighs has become really sensitive and soft, and it's making me feel really uncomfortable, especially when I walk. What should I do about this? Any advice on how to manage this better?
It sounds like you are experiencing a persistent case of jock itch that is causing discomfort, especially in the thigh area. FourDerm may not be effective enough to treat the infection. I recommend trying a combination antifungal cream like Lotrimin Ultra, applying it twice a day for at least 2 weeks. Additionally, keeping the affected area clean and dry, wearing loose-fitting clothing, and avoiding sharing personal items can help prevent further spread of the infection.

I've been dealing with some itching on my legs and hands, especially when I'm sweating in humid weather. It turns into a burning sensation and I've noticed whiteheads and blackheads forming in those areas. The skin becomes kind of blackish but during the winter or rainy season, it tends to disappear. Lately, it's been spreading to more areas, and its way more noticeable when its hot and humid, like when Im sweating. The whiteheads are a lot, but during the rainy season, things seem to calm downthe skin just looks a bit blackish but theres no itching or whiteheads. What could be causing this, and what can I do about it?
Possible Causes_ 1. *Folliculitis*: Inflammation of hair follicles, often caused by sweat and bacteria. 2. *Keratosis Pilaris*: A skin condition characterized by small, rough bumps (whiteheadsblackheads) due to keratin buildup. 3. *Hyperhidrosis*: Excessive sweating, which can contribute to skin irritation and folliculitis. _Treatment and Prevention_ 1. *Keep the area clean*: Wash with a gentle cleanser to prevent bacterial growth. 2. *Use a topical antibiotic cream*: To reduce inflammation and prevent infection. 3. *Exfoliate gently*: Remove dead skin cells with a gentle exfoliant. 4. *Wear breathable clothing*: Reduce sweat buildup by wearing loose, natural-fiber clothing. 5. *Stay hydrated*: Drink plenty of water to help your skin regulate its natural moisture balance.
