I've been dealing with a ringworm infection for a few days now, and I've been using Quadriderm RF cream, but it doesn't seem to be helping. The infection is spreading, mainly below the waistline, and I'm really worried. Do you have any advice or alternative treatments? What else can I try to get rid of this?

View allI've been using hydroquinone in the past to get flawless skin, and it worked really well for me. But then I had an acne breakout, so I stopped using it and switched to benzoyl peroxide cream. That cleared up my pimples, but now my skin is dark and pigmented. I'm not sure if I should start using hydroquinone again for the hyperpigmentation or if a chemical peel would be a better option. What do you think would work best for my situation?
Clinsol gel for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks.

I've got this dry, light brown patch under my eye, and the doctor suggested using fusidic acid and mometasone furoate cream. I'm a bit worried because my skin is really sensitive. Could this cream cause any additional problems? I've read some reviews and just want to make sure it's safe for me.
do not use that cream without doctors advice as it contains steroid,consume,vit B supplements and mineral rich foods taht would help you and also visit dermatologist for appropriate management

I've been using Fourderm cream for about 10 days now and it helped reduce the itching quite a bit, but after a few days, the itching came back in the hairy area around my private parts, not on the penis. This has been happening for the last 6 months, and now I've also started feeling itchy in my armpits. Do you have any advice or suggestions on what medicine I should consider?
-It seems like a fungal infection, which can recur if not treated fully. Avoid using Fourderm long-term, as it contains steroids. Use an antifungal cream like clotrimazole twice daily for at least 2 weeks, keep the areas dry, and consult a doctor for furt
