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.

View allI accidentally got some dettol on my forehead today, and now I've got this dark mark. It doesnt hurt or anything, but it just looks terrible. I'm already getting treatment for pimples, but my doctor is out of town. Can you tell me how long it might take for this mark to heal?
You can apply an antibiotic ointment like Silverex cream twice a day to prevent infection. Additionally, you can use a scar removal gel like Contractubex to help reduce the appearance of the dark mark. It usually takes about 1-2 weeks for minor burns to heal, but the dark mark may take longer to fade. Make sure to protect the area from sun exposure to prevent further darkening of the mark.

I've been dealing with persistent itching between my thighs and around my private areas. I started using coconut oil, and it seems to help for a couple of days, but then the irritation comes back. It's also itchy underneath my breasts. What could be causing this, and what can I do to make it stop for good?
You may be experiencing a fungal infection in those areas. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply it twice a day in the affected areas for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 4 weeks to treat the infection from within. Make sure to keep the affected areas clean and dry, and wear loose-fitting clothing to help with the itching and irritation.
