I've been dealing with this fungal skin issue on my butt crack, and it's really bothering me. I'm using terbinafin cream, but I'm wondering if there's another ointment I should try. Do you think taking tablets would help as well? I'd appreciate any advice you might have.

For fungal skin conditions like the one you have described, in addition to terbinafine cream, you can also apply clotrimazole cream twice a day to the affected area. It is important to keep the area clean and dry to prevent further fungal growth. As for oral tablets, you can consider taking fluconazole 150mg once a week for 2-4 weeks, but it is best to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any oral antifungal medication. Make sure to wear loose-fitting cotton underwear and avoid tight clothing to promote air circulation.

View allI'm dealing with some penile yeast infections and also having fungal infections elsewhere on my body. I'm considering taking fluconazole and using the KZ2 cream for it. Do you think that's a good idea, or should I take a different approach?
For penile yeast infections and fungal infections on the body, you can take Fluconazole for the yeast infection. The recommended dosage for Fluconazole is usually a single 150mg dose. For the fungal infections on the body, you can use KZ 2% cream. This cream contains Ketoconazole which is effective against fungal infections. You can apply a thin layer of KZ 2% cream on the affected areas once or twice daily, as directed by your healthcare provider.

I'm using clear gel on my face and usually leave it on for about an hour. Does that sound effective, or should I be leaving it on for longer to see better results?
Keeping a clear gel on your face for an hour can be effective, but for optimal results, it is recommended to keep it on for at least 2-3 hours. This allows the active ingredients in the gel to penetrate the skin and work effectively. Make sure to follow the instructions on the product label for the best results.

I'm really struggling with this issue where my testicles have a strong, unpleasant smell, and I've noticed this yellow layer on my hair. I've tried everything from washing to shaving, but it just keeps coming back, especially in the summer. My skin around that area seems damaged too. What can I do to fix this?
_Possible Reasons for Thigh Changes_ 1. *Muscle Imbalance*: Repeated dry humping might have led to overdevelopment of certain muscle groups, causing an imbalance. 2. *Poor Posture*: Frequent pressure on your thighs and legs might have affected your posture, leading to uneven muscle development. 3. *Genetic Factors*: Natural growth patterns and genetic predispositions can influence body shape and muscle distribution.
