I've been dealing with this problem for the past two years. Every time I take medication, it disappears, but after a few months, it's back again. I've been on meds for 2 to 3 months regularly, and it's frustrating because not only has my weight increased, but the issue still isn't going away completely. It's getting worse now, as the fungal infection is spreading to my private parts. I'm using sapat lotion and cream, which gives me some temporary relief, but I really want to get rid of it for good. What do you suggest I do to solve this from the root?

I've been dealing with a viral fever for the last five days, and while I'm feeling better now, I'm experiencing this really bothersome itching all over my body. Is this normal after a viral fever, or should I be concerned about something else? What can I do to relieve the itching?

That could be post pyrexial rash,no need to worry thats self limting ,stay hydrated and consume balanced diet,for itching you can take allergra 120mg or cetrizine 10mg once in a day for 3 days.

I'm using Bellissa Lite cream to help with fairness, but I'm seeing results really slowly. I'm considering switching to Ilumax instead. Is Ilumax a steroid, and is it safe for me to use? Also, Bellissa is a bit pricey, so is Ilumax a more cost-effective option?
