I'm trying to become a flight attendant, but they're saying you need to have a fair complexion. My skin is really dark, and I'm worried it's going to hold me back. How can I lighten my skin quickly? Can you give me some advice on what to do?

I've been dealing with some intense itching in my buttcrack for the last few days, and it's becoming pretty uncomfortable. It feels like I've scratched so much that there's almost a crack forming because of it. This has happened to me before, and I've found that using oil helps to soothe the itch. It's working a bit this time too, but the relief isn't lasting because if I scratch again, it just comes back. Any idea why this keeps happening and what else I can try to get rid of it?

You may be experiencing a case of fungal infection such as jock itch. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected area twice a day for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry, wearing loose cotton underwear, and avoiding tight clothing can help prevent further irritation. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

I've been dealing with a fungus patch on my skin. I saw a doctor and they gave me TERBITOTAL 500 and Funzi NM cream. These seemed to help but only temporarily. I really want to completely get rid of it. Can you please advise on what I should do?

You have to use the medications as a course as advised by your doctor, usually after starting the medications the infection fades but to eliminate it you have to continue the medicines for specific time period.and hygiene practices is more important.
