I'm really worried because I've been recently diagnosed with DPN and even though my doctor said it's common, these raised moles are spreading everywhere and it's freaking me out. Is there any way to prevent them from spreading even more? It's really affecting my confidence and morale, and I just want to know how to stop them. Any advice would be really appreciated.

View allI'm dealing with some really irritating itching and inflammation around my inner thighs and below the scrotum, and it's been going on for about two months now. I noticed it started when it was super humid, and I was walking a lot with sweaty thighs. Before, I used to just apply Itch Guard, and that seemed to do the trick, but this time it hasn't helped. I've also tried using Dexoderm Terbest cream, but I'm still struggling with the same issue. Could you help me figure out what else I should do?
Potential Causes* 1. *Intertrigo*: A skin condition caused by friction, moisture, and bacteria, common in warm and humid environments. 2. *Candidiasis*: A fungal infection, often triggered by excessive moisture and sweat. 3. *Contact dermatitis*: An allergic reaction or irritation from clothing, soap, or other substances. 4. *Eczema*: A chronic skin condition characterized by dryness, itching, and inflammation. *Treatment Options* 1. *Antifungal creams*: Continue using Terbest cream or try other antifungal creams like clotrimazole or miconazole. 2. *Hydrocortisone cream*: Dexoderm is a hydrocortisone cream. You can continue using it to reduce inflammation. 3. *Calamine lotion*: Apply calamine lotion to soothe itching and reduce inflammation. 4. *Tea tree oil*: Mix a few drops of tea tree oil with a carrier oil (coconut or olive oil) and apply it to the affected area. Tea tree oil has antifungal and antibacterial properties. *Self-Care Measures* 1. *Keep the area clean and dry*: Wash the affected area with mild soap and lukewarm water. Dry thoroughly, especially after exercising or sweating. 2. *Wear breathable clothing*: Choose loose-fitting cotton underwear and avoid tight clothing that can trap moisture. 3. *Avoid scratching*: Scratching can further irritate the skin and lead to infection. 4. *Apply powder*: Use a medicated powder or talcum powder to keep the area dry and reduce friction.

I'm dealing with this ringworm issue on my testicles and the area around them for the past 5-6 years, and even though I've used many antifungal creams recommended by doctors, nothing seems to work. It's especially bad when I sweat a lot in the summer, and the itching gets unbearable. Do you have any advice on how I can permanently get rid of this? Any help would be really appreciated.

I've been dealing with this fungal infection on my neck for over four months, and it's really frustrating. I've been using Onabet for it, but instead of getting better, it seems to be getting worse. I'm starting to worry. Do you know any stronger medicine that could actually clear this up?
