I've been dealing with jock itch for the past couple of years, and it's really frustrating because it keeps coming back and leaves scars. I'm using Amorolfine cream, Itraconazole capsules, and levocetirizine dihydrochloride tablets, as recommended by my doctor. But how can I get rid of these scars? Any advice on what might help?

To remove the scars caused by jock itch, you can consider using a topical cream containing Mometasone furoate along with Fusidic acid. Apply a thin layer of this cream on the affected area once daily for a few weeks. Additionally, you can also use a scar removal gel containing Allium cepa extract and heparin. Apply this gel on the scars twice daily for better results. Remember to continue using Amorolfine cream, Itraconazole capsules, and Levocetirizine dihydrochloride tablets as prescribed by your doctor for treating the jock itch.

I'm really worried about this genital wart around my anus. I started using Podowart after talking to my doctor, but now the whole area is swollen and has turned a whitish-red color. The wart still hasn't fallen off, and there's a weird rotten smell coming from the skin. Could this mean the wart virus is spreading? Is there an antibiotic I should use to prevent any infection? It's even making it hard for me to sit or go to the bathroom.
