I'm wondering if Benzac AC 2.5 can actually help with removing scars. Like, is it safe to use this cream during the day, or should I avoid going outside when I have it on?

I'm really struggling with a case of jock itch that's making my life pretty uncomfortable. It's all red and scaly and the itching is driving me nuts. I've tried so many over-the-counter options like Quadriderm and Triben Plus, but they only seem to work for a bit before the itch comes right back. Even the home remedies I've tried don't seem to help. What can I do to finally get rid of this?

Ive been struggling with severe skin damage for the last 3 years. My family doctor initially prescribed Melalite XL, which I used on my face and neck. Unfortunately, I've now developed dark patches on my chin and cheeks. They look really bad, and it's been really frustrating not finding any relief despite consulting various skin doctors. Could you please guide me on what else I can do to improve my skin condition?

I've been dealing with a fungal infection for about 1.5 years now, and it's all over my stomach and going downwards. I've tried a bunch of medicines like fluconazole and creams like O2derm, but nothing seems to be working. I'm really looking for some advice on how to finally get rid of this. What should I do?
