I've been dealing with a fungal infection between my last two toes on both feet. I used to use Lulifin Lotion from Ranbaxy, and it worked to keep it under control. But lately, I can't find it anywhere. Could you recommend another option? Also, I have to use a dusting powder like Tzyo or Candid every day because the space between my toes is narrow. Is there a permanent solution you could suggest?

Probable diagnosis is fungal infection , candid cream for local application, once daily for 2 weeks is advised, also tab levocetrizine 10 mg at bedtime for 7 days is advised, if any allergic reactions dermat opinion is advised.

View allI'm really worried and could use some guidance. I've been using melas cream for the past couple of months, but instead of improving, I noticed a lot of dark spots spreading across my face. It's becoming quite concerning for me. Could you please advise on what steps I should take to tackle this issue and hopefully clear up my skin?

I've been dealing with some issues with my scalp for the past 20 days. The flakes are yellowish, mostly around the top and back of my head. They're pretty easy to pick off but sometimes take some hair with them. When I wash my hair after picking them off, it really stings. Plus, I've noticed my scalp is getting oilier and my hair keeps falling out more than usual. What's going on, and what should I do?
I recommend using a medicated shampoo containing ketoconazole 2% to help with the flakes and scalp irritation. You can use it twice a week for 4 weeks, then once a week for maintenance. Additionally, you can use a coal tar shampoo to help with the scaling and itching. Make sure to leave the shampoo on for 5-10 minutes before rinsing off. In case of increased oil secretion, you can use a shampoo containing salicylic acid to help control the oiliness. If the condition persists, it's best to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
