I'm using metacortil lite cream for about a week now for my pimple marks and to lighten my skin tone. I havent noticed any side effects yet and no breakouts either. The marks are getting lighter too. My concern is, will this cream make my skin darker in the future? And what happens if I stop using it once my skin becomes clear and fair?

View allI've been dealing with a fungal infection around my thigh area and lower abdomen, and it seems to be spreading. I've tried a few different medications, but I can't remember their names, and I've even applied apple cider vinegar with no luck. Could you suggest some effective medicines or treatments that might help me get rid of it?
Candid cream for local application is advised for 3 weeks, along with tab flucanozole 150 mg once a week for 2 weeks is advised to the patient.

I've had this flat black mole under my right armpit for a long time, and it hasn't really bothered me. But a few days ago, I noticed some soreness in that area and felt like my lymph nodes were swollen, which only lasted for two days. It happened right when I got my period, so I'm not sure if theyre related. Now, I've started to feel pain in the mole, especially when I touch it or stretch my arm. I haven't shaved my underarms in a while, so that could have caused some of the discomfort too. Should I be concerned about this?

I've been dealing with a really itchy scrotum for the past few weeks, and it's driving me crazy. It seems to get worse after I touch it or whenever I sweat, like after sports or working out. I'm not sure if they're connected, but I've noticed the itchiness spreads to my legs, back thighs, and buttocks. Oddly enough, my chest never seems to itch. When I do scratch, the skin gets these raised bumps, but they fade after some time. The scrotum area experiences this too. It's gotten so bad that I've scratched it until it started to sting in the shower. What could be causing this, and how can I stop it?
If the problem persists despite home remedies or worsens, it would be best to consult a healthcare professional or a dermatologist. They may need to perform a skin examination, potentially test for fungal infections or other skin conditions, and provide a more targeted treatment plan. A prescription antifungal or topical steroid treatment might be needed if it's related to a fungal infection or dermatitis.
