I'm really worried because I've had 20 injections of dexamethasone, gentamycin, and deriphyllin in my buttocks over 5 days. Didn't feel any pain during the injections, but now, two days later, there's pain and these lumps have formed on both sides. Been using thromophob cream and taking Zerodol SP for 10 days, but the lumps and pain aren't going away. What should I do?

I've been dealing with an itching issue in my private area, and it's really starting to affect me. I'm also noticing a change in my skin color there, and it's pretty worrying. I'd love to hear which doctor you would recommend for something like this. I just want my skin back to its normal state.

Sounds like a fungal infection. Candid-B cream for local application, used 2-3 times a day, including before bedtime might be helpful for you. For skin lightening and scar repair, you can use Melalite cream. If the itching persists or worsens, seek a dermatologist consult.

I'm struggling with a Tinea Cruris infection around my thighs and back. I used lulifin ointment with tenovate before, and it seemed to help at first, but after a month, the infection came back in the same spot. Now I'm using ZoleF ointment. Can you suggest any creams or medicines that could provide a permanent solution for this issue?

For Tinea Cruris infection, it is important to use antifungal medications consistently to prevent recurrence. In addition to Zole-F ointment, you can consider using Terbinafine cream (brand name Lamisil) twice daily for 2-4 weeks. It is important to continue the treatment for the full duration even if the symptoms improve to prevent the infection from coming back. Additionally, keeping the affected areas clean and dry, wearing loose-fitting clothing, and avoiding sharing personal items can help prevent reinfection.

I'm a bit confused about my Itaspor 200 prescription for tinea cruris. I lost the paper and have 14 tablets, but not sure if I'm supposed to take one tablet per week or follow a different schedule. Can you help?
