Question 1

I'm dealing with this really itchy waist and groin area, and it's been going on for like 18 months now. I'm pretty sure my hygiene's top-notch, so I'm wondering if maybe I caught this from using public toilets? I've been to a few doctors alreadyone thought it was mites, another said it was a fungal thing, and the last suggested it might be bacterial. But none of their treatments have worked, and I'm still stuck with this problem. Do you have any idea what else this could be or what I should do next?

Probable diagnosis is fungal infection.

Question 3

I'm really worried about my skin recently. I had treatment for ringworm last month, but now I've noticed bristles near one of the spots where the ringworm was. This has been happening for the past two weeks. Could this be related to a condition like harpics disease? I'd really appreciate some guidance on what I should do next.

Accepted Answer

If so, please help me out. It sounds like you may be experiencing a fungal infection known as tinea corporis, which is commonly referred to as ringworm. The presence of bristles near the ringworm spot could indicate a recurrence or incomplete treatment of the fungal infection. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream twice daily on the affected area for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can take oral antifungal medication like Terbinafine 250mg once daily for 2-4 weeks to treat the infection effectively. Remember to keep the area clean and dry to prevent further spread of the infection.

I'm really confused about my herpes situation. I found out I'm HSV1 igg positive but igm negative. Does this mean I might accidentally pass it to someone else, or am I safe because I've got some kind of immunity now? I'm just trying to figure out what this means for me and others.

Although you have developed immunity to HSV-1, you can still potentially transmit the virus to others through asymptomatic shedding and skin-to-skin contact, so it's essential to practice safe sex and disclose your status to sexual partners.
