I'm really worried about my skin. I've been using this fair cream from Zee Drugs for about a year now, and I'm noticing some issues. If I skip using it for just a day, I get these small pimple-like things near my nose and all over my forehead. The longer I don't use it, the redder and itchier they become. And when I do use the cream again, my nose becomes covered with pimples that won't go away. Can someone please help me figure out what's going on and what I should do about it?

I'm dealing with chicken pox on my penis and it's really painful. I can't sleep and it feels like someone is cutting it. I have foreskin, so could that be part of the issue? What should I do?

I've been dealing with jock itch for the past couple of years, and it's really frustrating because it keeps coming back and leaves scars. I'm using Amorolfine cream, Itraconazole capsules, and levocetirizine dihydrochloride tablets, as recommended by my doctor. But how can I get rid of these scars? Any advice on what might help?

To remove the scars caused by jock itch, you can consider using a topical cream containing Mometasone furoate along with Fusidic acid. Apply a thin layer of this cream on the affected area once daily for a few weeks. Additionally, you can also use a scar removal gel containing Allium cepa extract and heparin. Apply this gel on the scars twice daily for better results. Remember to continue using Amorolfine cream, Itraconazole capsules, and Levocetirizine dihydrochloride tablets as prescribed by your doctor for treating the jock itch.
