I'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?

I've got a mark on my face from some stitches and I'm really hoping it can be removed. Could you please let me know if that's possible and what the options might be? I'm quite concerned about it.

Stitch marks on the face can be challenging to completely remove, but various treatments can help minimize their appearance; consider consulting a dermatologist or plastic surgeon for options like: topical silicone gel or sheeting, steroid injections, laser therapy, microneedling, or chemical peels to help flatten and fade the scars.
