I'm struggling with a persistent fungal infection on my skin. I'm using NuforceGM cream but the itching just won't go away. It looks like a ring with red spots. I've been dealing with this for quite a while. What do you think would help?

It seems like the fungal infection is not responding well to the current treatment. I recommend trying a combination antifungal cream like Lotrimin Ultra cream. Apply it twice a day on the affected area for at least 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 4 weeks to treat the infection from within. Make sure to keep the affected area clean and dry, and avoid wearing tight clothing to help with the healing process. Listen

Question

I've had this flat black mole under my right armpit for a long time, and it hasn't really bothered me. But a few days ago, I noticed some soreness in that area and felt like my lymph nodes were swollen, which only lasted for two days. It happened right when I got my period, so I'm not sure if theyre related. Now, I've started to feel pain in the mole, especially when I touch it or stretch my arm. I haven't shaved my underarms in a while, so that could have caused some of the discomfort too. Should I be concerned about this?

Question

I've been dealing with an oily scalp and hair loss and Im a bit worried because I also masturbate every two days. Is there any chance that masturbation could be causing this? Also, is it normal to masturbate every two days or around 3 to 4 times a week? If it's not considered normal, what steps can I take to manage or control my masturbation habits? I'm just trying to understand if there's a connection here or if I should be doing something different.

Question

I'm dealing with a jock itch issue and I've been considering using ITMAC 100. I've attached a picture for reference. It's been a struggle for about 2 years now, and I'm really seeking some help and advice. Could you let me know if ITMAC 100 would be a good option or suggest anything else that might help?
