I'm dealing with some really frustrating itching that's been going on for about 10 days now. I've tried antibiotics and Atarax tablets, but they haven't helped at all. The problem is, these rashes have appeared in some private areas, and I feel really uncomfortable about going to a hospital because I'm not sure how to show them. Do you have any advice on what I could do about this?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a skin rash or allergic reaction. Since the medications you have tried have not been effective, I recommend trying an over-the-counter antihistamine like Claritin (loratadine) 10mg once daily to help with the itching. Additionally, you can apply a topical hydrocortisone cream to the affected area twice daily for relief. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to seek medical attention for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm dealing with a stubborn fungal infection on my butt that's been bothering me for a few months now. I did see a doctor, and they gave me some cream and powder to use, which seemed to clear things up at first. But now, instead of that round, rash-like infection, I've developed bubble or pimple-like fungal bumps. Any idea what might be happening or how I should handle this? I'm really hoping to find a way to get rid of it for good.

It sounds like you may be experiencing a different type of fungal infection after treating the initial round. For the bubble or pimple-like fungal infection, you can try using Clotrimazole cream twice a day on the affected area. Additionally, you can take Fluconazole 150mg tablet once a week for 4 weeks to treat the infection from within. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to prevent further spread of the infection.

I'm dealing with some penile yeast infections and also having fungal infections elsewhere on my body. I'm considering taking fluconazole and using the KZ2 cream for it. Do you think that's a good idea, or should I take a different approach?

For penile yeast infections and fungal infections on the body, you can take Fluconazole for the yeast infection. The recommended dosage for Fluconazole is usually a single 150mg dose. For the fungal infections on the body, you can use KZ 2% cream. This cream contains Ketoconazole which is effective against fungal infections. You can apply a thin layer of KZ 2% cream on the affected areas once or twice daily, as directed by your healthcare provider.
