I'm using Candid B tropical solution to treat my nail fungus, and I just got it from a pharmacy. Is it safe to use? Can you let me know if there's anything I should be worried about?

Candid B topical solution contains Clotrimazole and Beclomethasone. It is commonly used to treat fungal infections. For nail fungus, it is important to apply the solution to the affected nail(s) twice daily for several weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry before application. If you experience any irritation or worsening of symptoms, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.

I've been experiencing this strange sensation during the evenings, like insects or something are crawling on my skin, especially around my stomach and back. It's really itchy and doesn't seem to go away. I'm trying to figure out what might be causing it and why it happens. Could you provide some insight?

Psorolin B ointment is advised for local application, also take tab allegra 120 mg orally for 2 weeks, if any side-effects dermatologist opinion is advised to the patient.

I'm really struggling with this itching problem on my skin that I've had for many years. I've been using a soap named Tetmosol, and it helps until the evening, but then the itching comes back. I'm curious if there's anything else I could try or if there's something more to it? It's been quite frustrating dealing with this every day.

It sounds like you may be experiencing a skin condition that requires ongoing management. In addition to using Tetmosol soap, you can also try using a topical corticosteroid cream like Betnovate (Betamethasone) twice a day on the affected areas. Make sure to apply a thin layer and gently rub it in. If the itching persists, you can also take an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine 10mg once daily in the evening to help with the itching. Remember to continue using these medications as directed by a healthcare professional.

I'm kinda worried about something and hoping you could help me out. I've been experiencing a lot of knee pain and backaches lately, and I'm noticing that my joints seem to get numb. It's also kind of hard to get up after sitting down for a while. Do you think this could have something to do with excessive masturbation? I'm really curious if there's a connection here.
