I'm really worried because I just tested positive for HSV IgG. Is herpes something that's curable? Could it be dangerous, especially since I'm married? What kind of doctor should I consult to get the right advice and treatment? I'd really appreciate your guidance on this.

I've been dealing with severe itching around my panty lines, and I'm seeing these round ring-shaped boils. The skin around the itchy area is also turning darker. I've been trying to keep it dry, and this has been going on for about 2 weeks now. I'm using SURFAZSN cream, and if I skip applying it, things just get worse. Can you help me figure out what's happening and what I should do?

I've been dealing with this relentless itchiness on my thighs whenever I get into bed at night, and it just won't stop until I somehow fall asleep. There's a rash on one of my thighs, and I'm convinced it's not a bite, since I haven't been bitten elsewhere. It's been going on for a couple of weeks. What could this be? Should I be worried?

Recently, I got hit on my nose with a mobile phone, and it left a scar after healing. My dermatologist recommended Suderma Scar reduction gel, and I've been using it for two months now, but I haven't noticed any improvements. I'm getting a bit concerned about the scar not fading. Is there something else I should be doing or trying?
