I'm noticing some redness on the forehead of my penis; it kind of looks like ringworm. It doesn't hurt or itch, but it's a round red spot. What could this be, and what should I do about it?

I've been dealing with this skin fungal infection for 34 years, and though I'm finally better, I'm left with scars all over my body that really bother me. They're in dark and light patches and spots, especially on my chest, waist, the sides of private areas, my back, and even my right leg below the knee. Theyre also under my left armpit and I get light dark spots on my face. What can I do to treat these scars? Are there any soaps or creams you'd recommend for long-term use?

Lulican 1.. cream is advised for 2 weeks and also u can take tablet levocetrizine , orally for 7 days.

I'm trying to decide between Opexa gel and Mederma for scar removal and I'm wondering which one works better. Can you also recommend a good cream specifically for acne scars?
