I'm struggling with vitiligo for the past 4 years and it's really concerning me. I've got these white patches on my neck and chest, and nothing seems to work. I followed a treatment plan for 34 months with tablets like Orofer after lunch, Meganeuron in the morning, used Melgain lotion after a bath, got some sun exposure before lunch, and applied Tacoz forte ointment at night, but there's been no improvement. I'm from Mumbai and Marine Lines is the closest station to me. Can you please guide me on what I might be doing wrong or if there's an alternative treatment I should consider?

View allI'm struggling with a pretty uncomfortable jock itch, and I'm not sure which anti-fungal cream would be better for meLulifin or Quadriderm? Also, are there any other medications or treatments that you'd recommend for this type of issue? I've tried over-the-counter stuff, but it doesn't seem to be helping much. Any guidance would be great!
The best anti-fungal cream for jock itch is lulifin cream. You can apply lulifin cream twice a day on the affected area for 2-4 weeks. In addition, you can take oral anti-fungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 4 weeks to treat jock itch effectively.

I'm really worried about my boyfriend. He developed this small bump in his upper pubic area that looked like a pimple at first. We assumed it was just an ingrown hair. But it's been really painful and just keeps getting bigger. Now it's about the size of my fingertip, bright red, and the center looks hollow, almost like something's eating away at it. We're not sure if it could be a bug bite or what. Do you have any idea what this might be and how we should handle it?
It's essential to consult a SURGEON for an accurate diagnosis and proper treatment. Possible causes of the bump could be: 1. Infected ingrown hair or folliculitis 2. Abscess or boil 3. Cyst or sebaceous cyst 4. Skin infection like cellulitis or erysipelas 5. Insect bite or sting Given the symptoms you described, such as: - Increasing size and pain - Bright red color - Hollow center
