I'm really worried about these ringworms on my skin. Can you please explain how to properly use Clotrimazole or Ketoconazole creams for treatment? I'm trying to do it right, but I'm not sure if there's a specific method or timing I should follow. Could you help me out with that?

View allI'm really worried because I've been noticing these white spots on my feet that keep spreading. It's been over a month now, and even though my doctor prescribed this ointment called Halonexts, I'm not seeing any improvement. My skin is peeling, and the white patches are just getting worse. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I've been waxing my arms today and ended up with these bad bruises right in that bendy area where nurses usually take blood samples. It's not like it's my first time waxing, but this is definitely the first time I've gotten bruises like this. Is it normal for this to happen? What might be causing these bruises?
It is not normal to develop bruises after waxing, especially if this is the first time it has happened. The bruising may be due to excessive force during the waxing process or possibly using a wax that was too hot. To help with the bruising and promote healing, you can apply a topical arnica gel or cream to the affected areas. Additionally, taking an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen can help with any discomfort. If the bruising does not improve or if you experience any signs of infection such as increased pain, redness, or swelling, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.

I've been getting a lot of red spots on my body and they're super itchy. I've tried some home remedies, but nothing seems to be working. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?
It sounds like you may be experiencing an allergic reaction or a skin condition such as eczema or hives. I recommend taking an antihistamine such as Cetirizine (10mg) to help with the itching and redness. Additionally, you can apply a soothing lotion like Calamine lotion to the affected areas. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
