I've been dealing with this jock itch for a couple of months now and it's driving me crazy. I've tried using Cloben G cream, and it seems to help while I'm using it, but as soon as I stop, the itch comes back. It's really uncomfortable and mostly around my inner thighs and buttocks. The skin is darker with a red, bumpy border, and lighter brown inside. I'm looking for a permanent fix. What can I do?

This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.

I'm using the Truderma Acne Kit that my doctor prescribed because I've been breaking out on my face. I think the night cream might not be working for me since it's making the spots darker instead of helping them. Is this normal or should I be concerned?
