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.

View allI'm a 28-year-old woman dealing with vitiligo. Back in 2014, it was almost gone, and I got married, which was great, but about a year and a half later, it returned. Now, I'm going through treatment again with steroids, and the patches keep spreading. I don't have a child yet, and I'm worried because my husband is concerned that if we have a child, they might also suffer from vitiligo. What are our options?
While vitiligo currently doesn't have a permanent cure, there are several treatment options to help manage the condition and improve the appearance of the skin. It's essential to work closely with your healthcare provider to find the treatment plan that works best for you. Keep in mind that results may vary, and a combination of treatments may be needed.

I'm an 18-year-old and I've been really worried about my hair lately. It's been falling out a lot, and I've read that it might be male pattern hair loss. I've tried using minoxidil because I heard it helps, but it actually made everything worse. I've still got a decent amount of hair and I really want to keep it that way. What should I do to stop it from getting worse?
Minoxidil 5. for local application ,once daily for 3-6 weeks is advised, tab finasteride 5 mg once daily for 3-6 weeks is advised to the patient.

I've been having this recurring issue with ringworm or maybe it's jock itch on my inner thighs. I first tried using clobetasol cream, then switched to dexoderm to avoid clobetasol, but I realized that dexoderm has clobetasol propionate too. It keeps giving me relief but it never really goes away completely. I recently started using ebernet cream and taking terbinafine 250 mg tablets. It's only been a week, but I think the redness is coming back and it's even spread to my glans. I dont have any itching right now, but Im worried its returning. Plus, the side effects from the tablets are a lot and I'm starting to feel some of them. Any advice on what I should do?
Consider consulting a dermatologist for personalized guidance, as you may need to adjust your treatment plan, and in the meantime, continue using the ebernet cream and terbinafine tablets as directed, while monitoring side effects and fungal infection symptoms.
