I've been dealing with jock itch for about a month now. I've tried cleaning with Dettol and applying CandidB ointment, but after a week, the itch keeps coming back. Can you help me find a permanent solution? I'm getting quite worried.

I'm really struggling with a skin fungal infection that's affecting different parts of my body, even my nails. There's this thick, whitish growth on my toenail and I've used all sorts of antifungal creams for what feels like forever, but nothing seems to fully get rid of it. It's really frustrating. Do you have any advice on what might work or why this is happening?

Having skin fungal infection in different areas of your body, including your nails (whitish thick nail of your foot), can be challenging to treat. To effectively treat fungal infections, especially on the nails, oral antifungal medications are often necessary. I recommend speaking with your doctor about prescribing you oral antifungal medication such as Terbinafine. Additionally, using topical antifungal creams like Clotrimazole (brand name Lotrimin) or Miconazole (brand name Monistat) can help in conjunction with the oral medication. Remember to keep the affected areas clean and dry to prevent further spread of the infection.

I've noticed some white patches on the skin of my penis. They don't really hurt, but they just seem odd to me. Could you guide me on where I should go for treatment and what type of doctor I should consult to address this issue?

I started going to the gym back in November 2015, and now it's been about 56 months. I've noticed some stretch marks appearing near my armpit area. I've talked to my nutritionist and gym trainer about it, and even did some Googling. It seems like these marks might be popping up because my body is growing or adding more muscle. Does that sound right, or could there be another reason behind them? Should I see a dermatologist about this, or would a sports nutritionist be better to consult with? Any advice would be appreciated!
