I'm really curious about what's going on with the left side of my waist. It's been really itchy and irritated for weeks, especially where my pants sit. There are some red bumps that look like a rash, but it doesn't hurt, just itches a lot! It's only in one small area about the size of an orange. I'm pretty sure it's not Shingles because I'm not in pain. And I do have allergies sometimes. What could this be?

View allI'm dealing with a ringworm issue on my skin and I'm a bit confused about whether it's okay to use regular soap, like Dettol, on it. Last time I went to the doctor, I remember being told not to use soap there, but I'm not sure if they meant all soap or just some. They prescribed KZ soap before, so I'm wondering if that's the only thing I should be using or if it's okay to use other soaps. What would you recommend?
Mild soap is advised ex-dermadew soap for local application.

I've got this thin light black-brown line right in the middle of my left thumb, and I dont feel any pain or itching from it. I cant recall injuring my thumb, though. I talked to a doctor, but not a Dermatologist. He guessed it was some fungal infection, so I took medicine for a week. The line hasnt disappeared or gotten darker, but the doctor said it looked slightly lighter and told me not to worry about it. It doesnt appear on any other fingers on my hands or feet. Should I be concerned about this line? Should I get a second opinion, maybe from a Dermatologist? Is it something that needs urgent attention?
That could be due stress or pressure induced pigmentation,no need to worry unless it does progress otherwise u can ignore it.
