I'm really struggling with an issue that's been bothering me for the last six months. I've got this persistent itch in the area below my buttocks, and I've tried using Dermiford cream and Btex, but nothing seems to work. The itch just keeps coming back. I even tried a home remedy with tulsi leaves, but that didn't help either. Could you please offer me some guidance on what to do?

Try an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine to help with the itching. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid tight clothing. If the symptoms persist, it would be best to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

View allI've been dealing with a keloid issue, and it didn't start until I turned 26. They've mainly appeared on my chest and shoulders. I'm really curious about what's causing them and what I should be avoiding to prevent more from forming. Are there any precautions I can take? Also, I'm wondering if there's a permanent solution available. Can keloids be completely removed? Any advice would be appreciated.
Treatment may include corticosteroid injections, silicone gel sheets, cryotherapy, laser therapy, or surgical removal. However, it's important to note that keloids may recur even after treatment, so there is no guaranteed permanent solution. It is best to consult with a dermatologist to discuss the most suitable treatment option for your specific case.

I'm currently using Momate cream on my face to tackle some dark spots, but I'm not sure if it's safe or effective. Could you let me know if this is a good option, or if there's another cream out there that's better for treating dark spots?
Momate cream contains mometasone, a steroid that can help reduce inflammation and itching. However, it may not be the best choice for dark spots. _For Dark Spots, Consider Alternatives_ 1. _Kojic acid cream_: Helps reduce melanin production and fade dark spots. 2. _Hydroquinone cream_: Fades dark spots and hyperpigmentation. 3. _Retinoid cream_: Promotes cell turnover, reducing appearance of dark spots. 4. _Vitamin C cream_: Brightens skin, reduces hyperpigmentation. 5. _Niacinamide cream_: Improves skin hyperpigmentation and brightness.
