I'm really struggling with jock itch and it's been a nightmare for the past 23 years. I've seen countless doctors, and they've all told me to use creams like Panderm, Dermikem, or to take Fluconazole tablets. They seem to work while I'm using them, but as soon as I stop, the problem comes roaring back. The skin on my inner thighs gets super thin and crazy itchy. These creams help temporarily, but the symptoms always come back. On top of this, I've gained some weight, and my face looks puffy and swollen. I'm also noticing stretch marks on my shoulders and knees, and I just feel tired and weak all the time. I'm really in a tough spot here. What can I do to finally get rid of this? Its becoming unbearable.

I'm taking three Limcee 500 mg tablets each day and I'm just wondering if that's okay. Is it safe to take that much Vitamin C, or should I be worried about any side effects or health risks?

Taking 3 Limcee 500 mg tablets is generally safe as Limcee is a Vitamin C supplement. However, it is recommended to not exceed the daily recommended dosage of Vitamin C, which is around 2000 mg per day for adults. Excessive intake of Vitamin C may lead to gastrointestinal issues such as diarrhea. It is advisable to stick to the recommended dosage to avoid any potential side effects.

I've been using Clobeta GM ointment for my jock itch, and while it's been helping, it's not completely gone. What cream and tablets would you recommend that could work better? And when should I take the tabletsmorning or night, and is it better before or after meals? I'm really hoping to get this sorted out soon.
