I'm really struggling with jock itch that started on my groin and buttock area about 4 months ago. Now it's spreading like athlete's foot, and it's getting really frustrating. I've tried several treatments Quadriderm for the first couple of weeks and then Itch Guard for a month, but neither worked. I even consulted a doctor on Practo who suggested Onabet 2 cream and Terbinafine 250mg tablets, but there's been no improvement after a month. Is there any strong cream or treatment you would recommend for Tinea Cruris? I'm looking for something effective because nothing seems to be helping.

I've had this lump on my forehead for a couple of months now, and I think it might need a little incision to get rid of it. Should I be seeing a dermatologist for this, or would a general physician be better? I'm not really sure who to go to, and I just want to make sure I'm doing the right thing.

-It's best to consult a dermatologist for the lump on your forehead, as they specialize in skin-related issues and can determine if it requires removal. If needed, they can guide you on the next steps for treatment.

I've been dealing with keloids and recently got tricort injections. It seems like my keloid has gotten smaller, but now I've started noticing a watery discharge from the area that doesn't seem to stop, even with dressing and antibiotics. I'm really worried about this. Do you have any advice on what I could do next?

Dermat opinion.

Psoriasis is a chronic, autoimmune disease that affects the skin, causing rapid skin cell turnover, leading to the characteristic red, scaly patches. While the exact cause of psoriasis remains elusive, it is clear that multiple factors—genetic, immune, and environmental—interact in a complex way to trigger the disease.
