I've been dealing with this fungal infection for over a year now, and I regularly use CIPLA FOREDERM CREAM which makes it feel normal. But if I stop using the cream for just 2-3 days, the itching becomes so intense that I can't walk or wear pants comfortably. Can you advise me on how to cure this, and if there's a permanent treatment available? I'm really struggling with this and would appreciate some guidance.

That could be fungal infection which needs both oral and topical antifungal medications and personal hygiene is more important for such condition.

View allI'm wondering if it's a good idea to use lacto calamine for treating dark spots. Im also curious if it could end up making my skin look dull or even darker. Is this something I should be concerned about?
Lacto Calamine can be used to treat dark spots on the skin. It contains ingredients like zinc oxide and glycerin which help in reducing dark spots and improving skin tone. It is unlikely to make your skin dull or darker. Apply a thin layer of lacto calamine on the affected areas twice a day for best results.

I've been using a clindamycin gel and isotretinoin tablet for my acne and scars for about 12 days now, but my skin seems to be getting oilier and I'm not seeing much improvement. In fact, I feel like my acne is more noticeable. Do you think I should stop using them, or is this normal and I should give it more time?
Concerns about Clindamycin gel and Isotretinoin tablet. _Possible Reasons for Oily Skin and Lack of Improvement:_ 1. _Initial breakout_: Isotretinoin can cause an initial flare-up of acne. 2. _Hormonal adjustments_: Isotretinoin can affect hormone levels, leading to increased oil production. 3. _Clindamycin gel_: Can cause skin dryness, but in some cases, may increase oil production. _Recommended Next Steps:_ 1. _Consult your dermatologist_: Discuss your concerns and the lack of improvement. 2. _Do not stop medication abruptly_: Consult your dermatologist before stopping or adjusting treatment. 3. _Consider adjustments to treatment_: Your dermatologist may adjust the dosage or recommend additional treatments to control oil production and acne. _Maintain Good Skincare Habits:_ 1. _Use non-comedogenic products_: Avoid products that clog pores. 2. _Keep your skin clean_: Gently wash your face twice a day. 3. _Avoid picking or popping pimples_: This can lead to further inflammation and scarring.
