Question 1

I've had this thing that looks like ringworm on my neck for a few months now. My doctor prescribed the strongest cream they have, but it's still not going away. I'm really worried and confused about why it's not healing. Could it be something else or am I doing something wrong? Any advice would be appreciated.

Accepted Answer

Persistent ringworm infections may require a different approach. In such cases, oral antifungal medications may be necessary. I recommend speaking to your doctor about trying oral antifungal medication such as Terbinafine (brand name Lamisil) at a dosage of 250mg once daily for several weeks. This should help to effectively treat the ringworm infection on your neck.

Question 2

I've got this lump on my butt cheek, maybe about an inch or so in diameter. Sometimes it swells up, I think because of the heat or something. It's really hard not to try to pop it a bit because it sort of tears when I sit, then it releases some pus and eventually calms down. My English isn't great, but I hope you get what I'm saying. Could you help me understand what's going on here?

Question 3

I'm a bit concerned because I've been using this AQUASOFT moisturizing cream from Ajanta Pharma for about 2 years now. I've been thinking, are there any side effects I should be aware of from using it for this long? Can you help me understand if there's anything I should look out for?

Accepted Answer

Aquasoft cream by Ajanta Pharma is generally considered safe, but long-term use can lead to potential side effects like skin irritation, allergic reactions, or dependence on the moisturizer, so it's recommended to consult a dermatologist for personalized advice and to reassess your skin's needs.
