I'm worried because I think a fire ant might have bitten my testicle sacks. They're swollen now, and at first, it was really itchy, but that part has stopped. Should I be concerned about the swelling? What should I do next?

I'm dealing with so much acne all over my face, and it's turning red and black like something's burned it. It's really irritating, and I'm getting these wrinkles and pores because of the acne. My eyes are also suffering; they're red, burning, and feel really irritated, especially behind them. A few months ago, I got something like ringworm and it turned into a huge mess. I've tried using clobetasol and powercort GM, but once I stop using them, the issues just come back. Sunlight makes it even worse, causing irritation and making my eyes tear up. My skin looks really aged with all the black and dark redness and the wrinkles. Can you please advise me on what I should do?

yes u can use it, visit ur physician for apprpropriate managent
