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?

View allHey, I need some advice. I had a sexual exposure a while back and I'm kind of freaking out. I've gotten tested multiple times for HIV and STDstwo months, five months, and ten months after exposure, using HIV duo combo, RNA PCR, and ECLIA testsall negative. But now, 14 months later, I've got these weird maculo papular rashes on my chest and shoulders that darkened and peeled off. Could this be related to HIV even after all those negative tests? I'm really worried and don't know what to think.
Since your HIV tests at 10 months were negative, it is less likely that this rash is directly related to HIV. However, it is important to have a proper evaluation by a healthcare provider to determine the exact cause of the rash. In the meantime, you can try using an over-the-counter antihistamine like Cetirizine (10mg) once daily to help with any itching. If the rash persists or worsens, please seek medical attention for further evaluation and management.

I'm using Clindac A for my acne treatment and the Episoft sunscreen. I'm wondering if I can start using the Cetaphil Gentle Cleanser on my face, or is there another face wash youd recommend? I'm a bit unsure about what's best for my skin while on this treatment. Any advice?
Yes you can use cetaphil cleanser or sebamed ,they help in maintaining healthy skin.

I'm really struggling with jock itch and it's been about 6 months now. I've been using apple cider vinegar on the area, and while it's helped a bit, it's not gone completely. Now I'm getting these boils popping up there and even on my face one after the other. Can someone tell me what treatment will actually get rid of this for good?
