I'm experiencing a really bad burning sensation on my hands after cutting ginger and chillis, and it's been going on for about three hours now. I've tried some home remedies like using milk, but nothing seems to work. I even tried ValerateN cream and took a pain killer, but the pain is still unbearable. Do you have any suggestions on what I could do to relieve this?

I've been taking terbicip 250 mg tablets and using the spray as well, but my infection has actually gotten worse. Now I'm having a burning sensation on my face, fever, and I've lost my appetite. Can you advise me on what I should do? I'm a bit worried about these new symptoms.

I've been dealing with some dark patches on my inner thighs from a previous fungal infection. The infection itself seems to have cleared up, but these patches haven't faded. I'm a bit worried about why they're still there and if they'll eventually go away on their own. Should I be doing something to help them fade, or do you think this is just part of the healing process? I'm really just looking for some guidance on what to do next.

I'm having trouble sitting for the past couple of days because there's a bump on my buttocks. I'm not sure how it got there, but it's really uncomfortable. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

The bump on your buttocks could be a pilonidal cyst, abscess, or boil, and to alleviate the discomfort, apply warm compresses, maintain good hygiene, and consider consulting a general surgeon for a proper diagnosis and treatment, which may include antibiotics or drainage.
