I'm looking for an ointment to treat jock itch but I really need one without menthol or any cooling agents. I've tried some before that had those and it wasn't a pleasant experience. Do you have any good recommendations?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
You can try using Clotrimazole cream, which is effective in treating jock itch. Apply a thin layer of Clotrimazole cream to the affected area twice a day for 2-4 weeks.

View allI've been dealing with vitiligo on my lips since 2007 and I've been using tacrolimus ointment 0.1 along with oral psoralen tablets, but I haven't seen any improvement. Is there anything else I should try or any advice you might have for my situation?
Vitiligo on lips since 2007, tacrolimus ointment 0.1% is being used at present along with oral psoralen tablet. But no any result. For vitiligo on the lips that has not responded to tacrolimus ointment and oral psoralen tablet, another treatment option to consider is topical corticosteroids. You can try using a potent topical corticosteroid like Clobetasol propionate ointment 0.05% twice daily on the affected areas of the lips. Additionally, phototherapy with narrowband UVB light can also be beneficial for treating vitiligo. It is important to continue treatment consistently and follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I have a red rash all over my back and shoulders. They're super itchy and some are pretty painful. I've been trying Dermi Cool powder, but it doesn't seem to be helping. Can you help me out with this?
This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.

I've got really sensitive skin, and every acne treatment I've tried just ends up making things worse. It's been pretty frustrating. Do you have any recommendations for a cream that's gentle but effective for getting rid of dark acne marks?
Clinsol gel for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks.
