Question

I'm dealing with a pretty uncomfortable situation here. I recently got over jock itch by using Clotrimazol Candid dusting powder, but now I've developed a small, pea-sized pus spot in my groin area. It burst open last night, and now Ive got this exposed wound that makes it tough to walk. I tried using Dettol Antiseptic liquid to clean it up, but it sometimes has a bad smell. Im really worried about it getting infected, so Id like to know what I can do to help it heal. Any advice?

Question

I'm in a bit of a dilemma. I've been using this steroid cream, Lobate GM, for quite some time because every time I try to stop, my skin breaks out in itchy rashes. Now that I'm expecting, I'm concerned about continuing with it. Can you help me figure out what to do? I really don't want to keep using it, but my skin flares up without it. What are my options here?
