I'm really frustrated because I've got a ton of ringworms all over my body. I've already tried so many creams like sapat lotion, KT5, dermring guard, panderm, triben, and itch guard, but nothing has helped. It's driving me insane because I can't stop itching the whole day. I'm desperately looking for an immediate home treatment for this. What can I do to finally get rid of them?

For immediate relief, you can try using Terbinafine cream (brand name Lamisil) twice a day on the affected areas. Additionally, taking oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole (brand name Diflucan) can help clear up the infection from within. Make sure to keep the affected areas clean and dry, and avoid sharing personal items to prevent spreading the infection.

View allI'm really worried about my boyfriend. He developed this small bump in his upper pubic area that looked like a pimple at first. We assumed it was just an ingrown hair. But it's been really painful and just keeps getting bigger. Now it's about the size of my fingertip, bright red, and the center looks hollow, almost like something's eating away at it. We're not sure if it could be a bug bite or what. Do you have any idea what this might be and how we should handle it?
It's essential to consult a SURGEON for an accurate diagnosis and proper treatment. Possible causes of the bump could be: 1. Infected ingrown hair or folliculitis 2. Abscess or boil 3. Cyst or sebaceous cyst 4. Skin infection like cellulitis or erysipelas 5. Insect bite or sting Given the symptoms you described, such as: - Increasing size and pain - Bright red color - Hollow center
