I'm struggling with persistent irritation and itchiness in my groin area, especially after long drives in hot and humid conditions. Initially, keeping the area dry and using Candid Clotrimazole powder would help, but now it seems to have become a recurring issue. The skin's darker with some scaling, and the itchiness and burning sensation return if I skip a bath or don't use the powder every 12 hours. I'm wearing loose clothing and trying to keep the area as dry as possible, but I'm not seeing any permanent relief. What can I do to completely get rid of this problem?

That could be fungal infection which needs both oral and topical antifungal medications and personal hygiene is more important for such condition.

I've got these lipomas all over my body, mostly on my hands and stomach. Some of them are painful while others aren't. I've talked to a local doctor who suggested surgery, but I'm wondering if there's another treatment option I should consider. Also, should I be seeing a specialist for this?
