I've been dealing with molluscum contagiosum and tried using Retino-A ointment, but it doesn't seem to be working. I really don't want to go the surgical route are there any other effective treatments to get rid of molluscum?

I'm a bit confused about something and was hoping for some guidance. When it comes to using Regaine, should it be applied after using hair oil, or is it supposed to go on beforehand? What's the right way to use it?

I'm noticing these pimples on my stomach repeatedly, and they're filled with pus. I'm a bit concerned it might be related to diabetes, although I haven't had a test yet. Could this be a sign of something like that, or is it usually something else? Any advice would be great.

I'm dealing with a really stubborn fungal infection on my back, stomach, and ear. I've been taking Itraconazole 200 mg for three months and it seemed to clear up, but now, about ten days after stopping the medication, the itching is back, especially on my back and around my ear. Could you suggest a treatment plan or medication to help me get rid of this for good?
