I've been dealing with keloids and recently got tricort injections. It seems like my keloid has gotten smaller, but now I've started noticing a watery discharge from the area that doesn't seem to stop, even with dressing and antibiotics. I'm really worried about this. Do you have any advice on what I could do next?

I've noticed these two small lumps under my left armpit. At first, they seemed like pimples under the skin, but they got worse and swollen after I applied some Tiger Balm and pressed on them. I'm a bit worried about what this could be. Could you give me some advice?

I'm dealing with an itchy patch on my skin around the groin, and it's forming scales and wrinkles. I've tried all types of fungal and bacterial creams, but nothing seems to work. I'm really worried and not sure what to do next. Could you please help me figure out what's going on and how I can get some relief?

our symptoms are suggestive of tinea cruris(jock itch). Tine cruris is a fungal infection in the groin area. It affects mostly adult men. It's caused by a type of fungus called dermatophytes. Dermatophytes like to grow on skin that's moist and warm and thrive in areas where skin comes into contact with other skin, such as the groin or between the toes. You will have to keep the groin dry, have an antifungal tablet, antacid and a topical antifungal over the area. The following steps may help: - Avoid using oily skin products - Reduce your exposure to the sun. Exposure to sun may trigger or worsen an episode and a tan makes the rash more visible. - Do not wear tight clothing. - Change undergarments regularly - Wear breathable fabrics such as cotton to decrease the sweating. - Keep areas where there is sweat accumulation dry regularly and apply powder in those areas to reduce the moisture. If the problem is persistent or worsens I would advise you to meet a dermatologist.
