I've been dealing with ringworm for a long time, and every time I see a doctor, they prescribe medication that helps, but then it just comes back. Is there a permanent solution for this?

I recently shaved my head, something I haven't done since childhood, and now I'm seeing these white patches all over my scalp. It's really gross and embarrassing. I've had dandruff issues before, but this looks different. What could this be, and how can I get rid of it permanently? Any advice would be really appreciated.

I recently had my first session of fractional CO2 laser treatment, and about 20 days later, I had to spend some time outside in the sun for work. I did use sunscreen, but my skin still seems to have been affected. It's red and feels really tight. I'm kind of worried and wondering if I should use Fucidin cream now. Is the damage permanent, or can it be fixed? Would really appreciate some advice.

Kozicure cream for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks , at bedtime ,if any side-effects dermat opinion is advised .

I've been to the dermatologist yesterday and she prescribed me a number of medications. I took them this morning, but then I started experiencing loose motions. I took HHAZI 500 MG, BECOSULE, and ALECLOZ. Is this normal? Should I be concerned or do I need to do anything about it?
