I'm really worried about this recurring fungal infection I've had for the last 10 years. It mostly flares up on my thighs, and it's really frustrating. Do you have any suggestions on how to manage or prevent it?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
This type of fungal infection in the thighs can be treated with antifungal medications. I recommend using Clotrimazole cream twice daily on the affected areas for at least 2-4 weeks. Additionally, taking Fluconazole tablets once a week for 4-6 weeks can also help in treating the infection. It is important to maintain good hygiene and keep the affected areas clean and dry to prevent recurrence.

I've got these really stubborn dark circles under my eyes, and they're not going away. Also, my upper lip is super dark, and my lip line is nearly black. I'm wondering if I might have melasma because there's noticeable pigmentation all over my facelike on my nose, around my mouth, eyelids, under my eyes, the sides of my cheeks, and my temples. Then there are these leftover dark spots from past acne, and new ones still popping up with ongoing acne, but I can kind of manage the acne when I stick to the right diet. The pigmentation is what's really bugging me though. I'm trying to avoid any advanced treatments, but I'm open to medication and following a routine. Right now, I just cleanse, tone, use eye cream, serum, both day and night creams, and sunscreen. Yet, it doesn't seem to be helping much, even though I'm consistently applying sunscreen. What would you suggest I do?
pigmentation might be due to various causes ,once get your Thyroid levels and blood sugars checked and visit Dermatologist for appropriate management,the products you are using might not be appropriate get a detailed advice from Dermatologist.
