I'm struggling with really bad foot odor whenever I wear shoes for just a few hours. At first, I thought it was athlete's foot, so I tried using Lotrimin, but then I found out it's actually pitted keratolysis. I switched to using 10% benzoyl peroxide ointments, and they seemed to help while I was using them. But as soon as I stop, the odor returns, and my feet start getting rough again. What should I do to tackle this for good? Any tips would be really helpful.

Hey, I've got these scars on my buttocks from boils that were treated with mupirocin ointment, but the scars just won't go away. Do you have any advice on how I can get rid of them?
To help reduce scars from boils on your buttocks, you can try using a silicone gel or vitamin E oil, which promotes healing. Gently massage the area and be patient, as scar healing takes time. If the scars persist, consult a dermatologist for further treatment options.
