I'm really worried because I read somewhere that this might be a symptom of skin cancer. Should we be looking into scheduling an appointment with a doctor about this?

Skin cancer is a serious condition that should not be ignored. If you notice any suspicious changes in your skin, it is important to consult a dermatologist for proper evaluation and diagnosis. Treatment options may include surgical removal, chemotherapy, or radiation therapy.

View allI have a fungal infection that's spreading from my feet to my hands and even my elbow. It's getting worse daily, and I'm really worried. Could you help me understand what's going on and suggest what I should do next?
It sounds like you may have a fungal infection that is spreading. To treat this, you can use an antifungal medication such as Clotrimazole cream. Apply the cream twice a day on the affected areas, including the feet, hands, and elbows. Make sure to keep the areas clean and dry before applying the cream. If the infection does not improve or worsens, consult a doctor for further evaluation and treatment.
