I've been dealing with a fungal infection in the area between my breasts for about a week now, and I'm not sure what to do. It's really uncomfortable, and Im worried about how to get rid of it. Can you help me figure out a solution to eliminate this problem?

You can use Clotrimazole cream twice a day on the affected area for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can take Fluconazole tablets 150mg once a week for 2-4 weeks to treat the infection effectively. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to prevent further fungal growth.

View allI've had exfoliative cheilitis for 12 years where the entire layer of my upper and lower lips peels off, leaving them red and raw. My top lip is also covered in Fordyce spots. I've tried so many treatments tacrolimus, clobetasol, mometasone, calendula ointment, Sebamed lip balm but nothing helps. Even multivitamins didn't make a difference. When I tried leaving my lips alone without peeling, they got even more inflamed. The skin turns white when wet and peels daily. Dermatologists keep recommending creams, but none work. Are there any surgical options since topicals don't seem to do anything?

Ever since I used Veet hair removal cream on my bikini area a few weeks back, my vagina's been feeling really inflamed and irritated. Things improved a bit once the hair grew back, but now I'm still super itchy around the outer labia at night, even though everything seems normal during the day with no weird discharge. I'm trying hard not to scratch so I don't make it worse, but it's really messing with my sleep. What should I do?

I'm dealing with some issues and I'm really worried about it. Recently, there's been dryness, a little burning, and itching on my penis. I've tried using Vaseline to keep it moisturized, and while the dryness has improved, the itching and some burning still persist. To give you some context, I'm in a sexual relationship with my girlfriend and we usually use protection, but we did have unprotected sex last month. Shortly after, the skin on my penis turned red and burned for a day, then went back to normal. Now, almost a month later, these symptoms showed up. I'm concerned if this could be an STD. What steps should I take to address this? Could this be something serious?
