I'm dealing with a stubborn fungal infection around my genitals and it's been a real pain for about 3 years now. I've tried creams like Soframycin and taken Candistat tablets, but nothing seems to help long-term. It tends to get worse when I sweat, and it's really itchy and turns red. Im worried and don't know what else to try. Do you have any advice on what could work or whats causing this?

A persistent fungal infection near the genitals, especially one that increases with sweat and causes itching and redness, often requires strong, prolonged antifungal treatment. If the current treatment hasnt been effective, I recommend following up with your doctor for a more tailored approach, potentially involving oral antifungal medication and more careful management of moisture and hygiene in the affected area.

View allI have several sebaceous cysts on my scrotum and want to know if there are non-surgical treatment options. Would homeopathy work for this, or should I see an allopathic doctor? If so, which specialist is best a urologist or dermatologist?
Sebaceous cysts on the scrotum are usually benign and may not require treatment unless they become painful or infected. Non-surgical options are limited, and homeopathy lacks strong evidence for effectiveness. It’s best to consult a dermatologist first, as they specialize in skin conditions and can guide you on management or refer to a urologist if needed.

I'm worried about using sunscreen because I have acne scars and large pores. Plus, my skin is really sensitive and Im quite fair-skinned. Is there a sunscreen that's gentle enough and won't make my acne worse or cause any other side effects? Any advice would be appreciated!

I've noticed that my fingertips have become really sensitive, and now my sense of touch feels dulled. I can still feel things, just not as sharply as before. Also, my fingers and hands are super dry and wrinkled, almost like they've been in water too long, and this has been going on for about two weeks. I've tried using lotion multiple times a day, but the wrinkles just won't go away. It's happening on both hands. What could this be?
