Question 1

I'm noticing this ring-like red spot on my face and it sort of reminds me of ringworm. I've started using Lobate GM cream for it. Is this the right treatment to go for, or should I be doing something different? Im a bit worried about whether I'm using the right stuff for this.

Accepted Answer

A ring red spot or rash on your face resembling ringworm may require antifungal treatment. However, Lobate GM is not appropriate for ringworm as it contains a combination of a steroid (betamethasone) and two other ingredients. Instead, you should use an antifungal cream like Terbinafine (brand name Lamisil) or Clotrimazole (brand name Lotrimin). Apply the antifungal cream twice daily on the affected area for at least 2 weeks. If the rash persists or worsens, consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

Question 2

I've been dealing with acne and pimples on my arms and back for a few months now. A friend suggested using salicylix acid ointment, but it hasn't helped much. Any other remedies you'd recommend? I'm really looking for something effective because it's been bothering me quite a bit.

Accepted Answer

Question 3

I'm really worried about these Fordyce spots that I have. Are there any home remedies I could try to help with them? I've also heard that coconut oil might be a cure. Is there any truth to that?

I'm noticing some black spots on my face and a doctor recommended I try using dermiford cream. I'm really curious if this is the right thing to do for my skin. Do you think it's okay to use it?
