I'm really worried because I've been dealing with ringworm for a while now, and it's not showing any signs of clearing up. Can you give me some advice on what I can do to treat it effectively? I'm not sure if there's something I'm missing or doing wrong. What options do I have, and should I be concerned about this spreading to other parts of my body or to others around me?

I've been using betnovate n cream for the past 6 years, but I stopped about 15 days ago. Now my face is really red and itchy, with dry skin and tiny blisters. I've tried using Cetaphil lotion and cleanser, which helped with the redness and dryness, but the blisters and itchiness won't go away. Can you please help me figure out what to do?

I'm experiencing this weird issue where the inside of my mouth, like my cheeks and gums, feels really rough and kind of like sandpaper. There's also this wrinkly texture going on. It's been happening on and off for about five months now. Any ideas on what's going on or what I should do about this?

You may be experiencing symptoms of dry mouth and oral mucositis. To help alleviate these symptoms, you can try using Biotene Oral Balance Gel. Apply a small amount of the gel to the affected areas in your mouth 4-5 times a day, especially before bed. Additionally, make sure to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day. If the symptoms persist, consult with your dentist for further evaluation and management.

I've been using Olifair for just under a week now, and my face has gotten really bright and fair. I'm a bit concerned though, could it lead to a skin allergy or even skin cancer since it's caused such a noticeable change in a short time? Are there any side effects I should be aware of?

Continue same treatment, side-effects include rash,itching and hypersensitivity reactions etc, if u have any sde-effects dermat opinion is advised.
