View allI've been dealing with these round-shaped rashes that itch in some spots for about three weeks now. I already saw a dermatologist and tried the medication they recommended, but it still hasnt cleared up. Should I be worried that its taking this long to go away? Do you think I should get a second opinion or try a different treatment?
It seems like you are experiencing a persistent rash with itching sensation. Since the medication prescribed by the dermatologist did not provide relief, I recommend trying a different approach. You can try using a combination of hydrocortisone cream and antihistamine such as Cetirizine. Apply the hydrocortisone cream twice a day on the affected areas and take Cetirizine 10mg once daily for relief from itching. Make sure to follow this regimen for at least a week and see if there is any improvement in your symptoms.

I'm experiencing this weird internal itch in my fingertips every morning during the winter. It's like scratching doesn't cut it, and I've found that warming them up in my armpits helps, but it's just a temporary fix. Is there a long-term solution or something I can do to get rid of this itchiness for good?
You may be experiencing symptoms of dry skin in the winter season. To help alleviate the itching in your fingertips, I recommend using a moisturizing cream or ointment regularly, especially after washing your hands. You can try using a product like Eucerin Advanced Repair Hand Cream or Aveeno Skin Relief Hand Cream. Additionally, wearing gloves when going outside in the cold weather can help protect your skin and prevent further dryness. If the itching persists, you can also try taking an over-the-counter antihistamine Claritin to help reduce the itchiness.
