I'm really worried about this itching issue on my leg. There was this small red patch at the start that was itching a lot, and now there's even some blood. We did see a doctor, but it doesnt seem to be getting any better. Can you help me figure out what to do for proper treatment?

View allI've been using an antifungal cream for a while, and it seemed to be helping, but once I stopped using it, the itching started at the same spot again. Why does this keep happening? Is it normal for the itching to come back after stopping the cream? What should I do next?

I'm experiencing this weird internal itch in my fingertips every morning during the winter. It's like scratching doesn't cut it, and I've found that warming them up in my armpits helps, but it's just a temporary fix. Is there a long-term solution or something I can do to get rid of this itchiness for good?
You may be experiencing symptoms of dry skin in the winter season. To help alleviate the itching in your fingertips, I recommend using a moisturizing cream or ointment regularly, especially after washing your hands. You can try using a product like Eucerin Advanced Repair Hand Cream or Aveeno Skin Relief Hand Cream. Additionally, wearing gloves when going outside in the cold weather can help protect your skin and prevent further dryness. If the itching persists, you can also try taking an over-the-counter antihistamine Claritin to help reduce the itchiness.

No, continue same treatment as advised by the dermatologist.Clinol gel for local application for atleast 2-3weeks is advised to the patient.
