I'm really worried about my penis; there's this redness on the forehead of the skin and some small red bumps on the side. There's no itching or fluid, but it burns and irritates. I've been using Candida B, Onbet, and T Bact ointments and have tried various creams, but nothing seems to help. My skin is scratching and there's a red rash. What should I do?

This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.

I'm really worried because I've had ringworm near my private area for the past three months. I was using a cream on it and covering it with cotton, but it started spreading to nearby areas. The thing is, I just found out I'm 6 weeks pregnant and I'm really anxious because I was using the cream until yesterday. Could this have harmed my baby in any way? I'd appreciate any advice or insight you might have.
See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.

I've had this thing that looks like ringworm on my neck for a few months now. My doctor prescribed the strongest cream they have, but it's still not going away. I'm really worried and confused about why it's not healing. Could it be something else or am I doing something wrong? Any advice would be appreciated.
Persistent ringworm infections may require a different approach. In such cases, oral antifungal medications may be necessary. I recommend speaking to your doctor about trying oral antifungal medication such as Terbinafine (brand name Lamisil) at a dosage of 250mg once daily for several weeks. This should help to effectively treat the ringworm infection on your neck.
