I'm really worried about my wife's finger. A few months back, she got this tiny hole on the tip, and it hurt to touch, with a small circular thing forming there. The doctor told us to use a corn cap for a week, and that took away the pain and some side skin, but that circle's still hanging around with a tiny dot, just like it was several months ago. We don't see anything stuck in there, so were confused about whether to try the corn cap again or should we consider getting it removed surgically. Could you give some advice on what might be best to do?

I've got some hard skin that's formed on my right hand little finger, and it's making me itch constantly. Once I start scratching, it's hard to stop. I'm really not sure what's going on and it's getting kinda annoying. Could this be something serious or do you think it's just dry skin? Any advice on what I should do next would be super helpful.
If it really hard and pigmentation is seen that could be a type of psoriatic patch, avoid scratching and keep it moist, visit Dermatologist for appropriate treatment.

I'm dealing with these really uncomfortable thigh rashes, and someone suggested I try using a cream called DEROBIN. However, after applying it, I've noticed the areas have become itchy, swollen, and theres a red, hard circle forming. I'm a bit concerned about whether this is a normal reaction or if I should stop using it immediately. Could this be an allergic reaction, or do you think there might be another underlying cause?
The cream DEROBIN is a combination medication that contains Beclomethasone and Clotrimazole. It is used to treat various skin conditions such as eczema, dermatitis, and fungal infections. In your case, for thigh rashes with itching, swelling, and red hard circles, you can apply DEROBIN cream thinly on the affected areas twice a day for about 2 weeks. Make sure to clean and dry the area before applying the cream. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.
