I'm having some trouble with rashes or a fungal infection in my inner thighs, and even though I've been using creams like Candid Total and Clobetta GM, its just not getting better. Its actually spreading to my buttocks too. Could you suggest what I should do to get some relief?

Sharp pains from kidney stones can be excruciating. Since Mefatal Spas isn't providing sufficient relief, consider the following options:

Consult your doctor about alternative pain management options, such as:

NSAIDs like Ibuprofen (Brufen) or Diclofenac (Voveran)

Muscle relaxants like Baclofen

Opioid analgesics (if prescribed by your doctor)

In addition to medication:

Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water (at least 8-10 glasses a day)

Apply heat: Use a warm compress or heating pad on the affected area

Rest: Get plenty of rest to help your body cope with the pain

If the pain persists or worsens, seek immediate medical attention.

Can I use desonide cream to help with my skin tone? Is it safe for someone like me with dark, oily skin and acne marks?

Desonide cream is a topical corticosteroid primarily used to treat skin inflammation and allergies; while it may temporarily lighten skin tone due to its anti-inflammatory effects, using it for fairness is not recommended, as prolonged use can lead to skin thinning, acne, and other adverse effects, especially on oily and acne-prone skin.
