I'm living in Qatar and have been dealing with a fungal infection for about 11 months. I'm on treatment, but it doesn't seem to be working. Can you please give me some advice on what else I could try or if there's a different treatment approach I should consider?

For fungal infections that are not responding to treatment, it's important to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation. However, in cases of persistent fungal infections, antifungal medications such as Terbinafine (brand name Lamisil) or Fluconazole (brand name Diflucan) may be prescribed. The dosage and duration of treatment will depend on the severity of the infection and your individual medical history. It's important to follow the treatment plan as prescribed by your healthcare provider.

I'm 25 and I've been using Cloben G for a couple of months, but now that I've stopped, my face has turned red and it's super itchy with these rashes. I'm really not sure what to do next. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

This could be due to withdrawal effects or rebound effects from the steroid in the cream. To help with the redness and itching, you can try using a mild topical corticosteroid like hydrocortisone cream twice a day on the affected areas. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like cetirizine once daily to help with the itching. Make sure to keep your skin moisturized and avoid any harsh skincare products. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
