I'm really concerned about this redness I'm experiencing around my thigh joint. I've been using propysalic NF ointment for itching and to get rid of some scars, but now my skin tone seems different. Should I continue using the same ointment or try something else? I'm just a bit worried about my skin changing and could use some guidance.

I've got this strange rash on my arm that I noticed a few days ago. It's just one spot, and it's circular with a scaly edge, but the center is really red. I'm wondering what it might be. Any ideas?

There is a possibility that the rash you are describing is a ringworm infection. I recommend using an antifungal cream such as Lotrimin Ultra twice a day on the affected area for 2-4 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry. If the rash does not improve or worsens, please follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I've got this ringworm rash that's really itchy, and I'm not sure how to handle it. Should I be washing it with neem soap, using Dettol antiseptic, or is it okay to just use normal water? I'm a bit worried about what's the best approach here. What do you suggest?

Candid cream for local application is advised for 3 weeks, along with tab flucanozole 150 mg once a week for 2 weeks is advised to the patient.
