View allI'm a 27-year-old woman and I'm dealing with an armpit yeast infection. I tried Clobetasol but didn't see any improvement. Now, I'm using Whitfield's ointment with Benzoic Acid and Salicylic Acid. Can this really help with the yeast infection, or is there a better medication I should consider?
Whitfield's ointment containing Benzoic Acid and Salicylic Acid is not typically used to treat yeast infections. For yeast infections, antifungal medications are usually recommended. You can try using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole (Canesten) or Miconazole (Monistat). Apply the cream to the affected area twice a day for about 1-2 weeks. If the infection persists or worsens, it's best to consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm curious if using a ready-made Aloe Vera Gel mixed with Vitamin E is a good idea for lightening the dark patches on my face. I've been advised by a doctor on Practo to use SPF 30 for extra protection, but I'm wondering if this Aloe Vera and Vitamin E mix might be beneficial for my skin concerns. What do you think?
Aloe vera gel and vitamin E can be a good combination to help reduce dark patches on the face. Here's why: 1. Aloe vera gel has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that can help soothe and calm the skin, reducing redness and irritation. 2. Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that can help protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals, which can contribute to dark patches. 3. Vitamin E also has skin-lightening properties, which can help reduce the appearance of dark patches. However, keep in mind: - It's essential to choose a readymade aloe vera gel that is pure and free of harsh chemicals. - Vitamin E can be quite thick, so you may want to mix it with a few drops of a carrier oil like coconut or jojoba oil to make it easier to apply. - Always do a patch test before applying any new skincare mixture to your face to ensure you don't have any sensitivity or allergic reactions. - Consistency is key! Apply the mixture regularly, ideally once or twice a day, and be patient as it may take some time to see results. Remember to consult with a dermatologist if the dark patches persist or worsen. They can provide personalized advice and help you identify the underlying cause of the dark patches. Also, don't forget to use SPF 30 as recommended by your doctor to protect your skin from further damage!

I'm a bit concerned about my health. I've had my vitamin D3 levels checked, and they seem fine, but I'm experiencing a white tongue. It tends to disappear when I eat but then comes back. I've also done some blood tests, and everything seems normal. What could be causing this? Should I be worried about the white tongue even though my tests are normal?
