I've been dealing with this persistent fungal skin problem for the last couple of months. It's mainly around my lower abdomen, and the itching just doesn't stop. I'm starting to get really worried about what might be causing this and how to make it go away. What could it be, and what should I do next?

That could be fungal infection which needs both oral and topical antifungal medications and personal hygiene is more important for such condition.

I'm dealing with some tiny pimples on my forehead and have rough skin around my cheeks, and I'm wondering if it's okay to use Azee 250 and Isotroin to help with this? Is this combination safe for treating skin issues like mine, or should I consider alternatives? Id really like to get my skin back to normal and would appreciate any advice on the best approach.

I'm a bit confused about when exactly I should be using sunscreen. Do I really need to keep reapplying it all day long, even in the evening or at night? Or is it okay to skip it once the sun goes down?

It is necessary to use it all day long. Should we apply sunscreen even at evening and night time ?? Or no need to apply it after sunset.. Sunscreen should be applied every day, regardless of the time of day. It is recommended to apply sunscreen in the morning before going out and to reapply every 2 hours, especially if you are outdoors. Even in the evening and at night, if you are going to be exposed to artificial light sources such as fluorescent bulbs or screens, it is advisable to continue using sunscreen to protect your skin from harmful UV rays.
