I'm wondering if it's okay to use Kozilite cream as my night cream long-term. I've been using it for about a month now and I love the results, but I recently read that using kojic acid for a long time might cause vitiligo. I have fair skin and don't have any pigmentation issues. Is it safe to keep using it?

View allGot diagnosed with chicken pox today and consulted two doctors, but they both only suggested taking dolo 650. I'm seeing reviews though where other doctors mention antivirals for treatment. Just feeling a bit anxious here. Should I be taking some other medication too?

I've been dealing with a fissure for the past 6 months and had to use sitz baths in warm water. Now I'm experiencing a burning sensation on my scrotum, and I'm also diabetic. The right side of my scrotum is painful, especially at the upper end. I'm really getting mentally frustrated with all of this. What could be going on? Can you help?
I'm so sorry to hear that you're experiencing a burning sensation in your scrotum, especially after dealing with fissures for six months. Given your symptoms and medical history, it's essential to consult a doctor, preferably a urologist or a dermatologist, to determine the underlying cause of the burning sensation. That being said, here are some potential causes and factors to consider: Potential Causes 1. Diabetes-related complications: High blood sugar levels can damage nerves and cause numbness, tingling, or burning sensations in the genital area. 2. Fissure-related complications: The sitz baths and fissure treatment might have caused skin irritation, leading to the burning sensation. 3. Scrotal dermatitis: Inflammation of the scrotal skin, possibly caused by irritation, allergies, or infections. 4. Balanitis: Inflammation of the glans penis, which can cause burning sensations in the scrotum. 5. Nerve damage: Damage to the nerves in the scrotal area, possibly caused by diabetes, trauma, or surgery.

I've been dealing with this really annoying fungal infection around my groin and scrotum area. The itchiness is driving me nuts, and every time I scratch, it starts to burn even more. It's like a vicious cycle. I tried using some btex cream, but it didn't really help. Can you suggest what I should do to get some relief?
Fungal infection.. Also called jock itch, when occurs in groin.. Usually fungal infection is common in moist areas of body like skin folds..It's mostly circular or round in appearance.. May be red or black in colour.. Treatment depending on the type and severity.. Avoid sharing clothes, towels and soap; sweating also increases it..As it has to be differentiated from eczema, bacterial and viral infection, doctor need to see to confirm the diagnosis.
