Question

I'm having some issues with my nails and went to a dermatologist. They didn't find any fungal elements in the KOH mount test, but the doctor prescribed me Clonate lotion and Lyotin Forte tablets. Can I start using these, and is it really okay to apply Clonate lotion on my nails? Are there any side effects I should be aware of, and could you explain the proper way to use them? I'm really anxious to figure this out soon!

I've just had my first full body wax, and it's led to some red and itchy bumps on my stomach and back. I've only waxed my arms and legs before and didn't have this reaction. What can I use to help reduce the itchiness and redness? Would a specific cream or tablet be best?
