I'm struggling with a fungal skin infection for about 10 months now and nothing seems to cure it permanently. It's really frustrating and I'm worried about why it's not going away. What should I do to get lasting relief?

You've been dealing with a fungal infection for 10 months, and it's essential to get proper treatment to avoid further complications. To cure fungal infections, antifungal medications are usually prescribed, which can come in various forms like oral medication, creams, powders, or shampoos.
In addition to medication, some natural remedies may help, such as applying tea tree oil, aloe vera, or turmeric paste to the affected area.

View allI'm a 26-year-old guy living in Mumbai. I used to have a fair complexion, but after years of sun exposure and not really taking care of my skin, my face, hands, and neck have become visibly darker. If I stay indoors for a few days, my skin lightens up a bit, but I can't really do that since I have to work. My body's skin is quite fair, and with my wedding coming up soon, I want to get back to my old skin tone on my face and hands. Can you suggest any daily home remedies or maybe pills like glutathione for this? How safe is it to take glutathione? Are there any side effects, and how likely are they to happen? Also, if I start using it, would the skin tone change be long-lasting, or would I have to keep taking the pills to maintain it?
To help regain your lost complexion and lighten your skin tone, you can consider using topical creams containing hydroquinone, kojic acid, or azelaic acid. These can help lighten dark spots and even out skin tone. Additionally, using a daily sunscreen with high SPF can prevent further darkening of the skin due to sun exposure.

I've been dealing with this itching on my inner thighs and buttocks for the last three months, and I've noticed the same rash on my left-hand wrist and both my right hand and leg joint. I've tried a bunch of antifungal creams and meds like flucan 150mg, cefadroxil 500mg, and Levosiz, and then switched to terbinafine tablets and cream. Been on these for three months now, but there's been no improvement. In fact, the redness got worse over the last four days. Could you help me figure out what's going on and how to get rid of this?
Given your persistent symptoms despite treatment, it's essential to reassess your condition. Here's a step-by-step plan:
