I've been dealing with a persistent Tinea infection on different parts of my body like the inner thighs, groin, belt area, and armpits for nearly 45 months now. I tried a treatment course for a month, taking Tab Prugo 10 once daily, Cap Canditral 100 once a day, and using Ointment Propyzole at night and Ointment Sebifin during the day. I repeated this twice with an increased dosage the second time. Each time I take the medicine, the infection seems to go away for a bit but then comes back once I've finished the course. Can you suggest a more effective treatment to finally get rid of this Tinea for good?

Probable diagnosis is fungal infection. Candid cream for local application is advised for 2 weeks, along with tab levocetrizine 10 mg orally,daily for 5 days is advised to the patient.

I'm a 27-year-old mom and I've been using Absorb powder for rashes in my groin area. I'm wondering if it's okay to use the same powder on my 2-month-old baby girl's diaper rash. Is it safe and will it actually help?

Sebamed rash cream.

I've been dealing with this rash near my belly button for the past two months. I saw a dermatologist and got an ointment that helped for a bit, but as soon as it runs out, the rash comes back. What could be causing this? Should I be worried about it, and is there a long-term solution? I'm concerned about why it just won't go away.

It sounds like you may be dealing with a recurring rash near your belly button. Since the ointment prescribed by your dermatologist provided temporary relief but the rash keeps coming back, I recommend trying an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole (Canesten) twice a day for 2-4 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid tight clothing that may irritate the rash further. If the rash persists, follow up with your dermatologist for further evaluation.

Hey, so I've been dealing with this acne hyperpigmentation and scars issue, and back in February, a dermatologist gave me two creamsdepiwhite and cutisoftfor 20 days. But I kind of messed up by not going back for a follow-up and just kept using them for about seven months. When I finally went back, he said my skin got darker and extra sensitive, leading to more pimples. Now he's given me kozimax and glocin gel. I'm really curious if glocin gel helps fade scars or if it just targets the bacteria. Also, is having regular acne something that could hint at liver damage?
