yes you have to stop using the soap and ask your doctor to advise alternate soap or add moisturizer for your treatment.

I'm experiencing a lot of itching between my hips and vagina, and sometimes it gets really intense. But after scratching, it becomes painful. I'm really worried about what might be causing this. Could you help me understand what's going on and what I should do?

Sounds like you may be experiencing a yeast infection. You can try using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole (Canesten) twice a day for 1-2 weeks to help relieve the itching and pain. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid wearing tight clothing.

I've been using Betnovate-N cream for about 10 years, usually applying it at night in a thick layer. I stopped using it two months ago, and now I'm dealing with redness, itching, dry skin, and small blisters on my face. I've tried using aloe vera, glycerin, and a Cetaphil cleanser, but I'm still experiencing these issues along with pimples. Do you have any suggestions or remedies to help me get rid of these side effects? I'm really worried about my skin.
