I've been dealing with this stubborn fungal infection for almost 45 months now. It's between my legs near the private area and on my buttocks. Initially, it started as red patches but then turned white. My friend, who's a doctor, suggested I try IT Mac 100 tablets and ketonate cream. After sticking to this treatment for 15 days, though, the itchiness is just as bad as before. It's driving me crazy and is super annoying. Can you recommend something more effective?

Consider consulting a dermatologist for personalized advice, but based on your symptoms, a suitable treatment might include oral antifungals like Fluconazole (150mg once a week for 2-4 weeks) or Itraconazole (100mg twice a day for 2-4 weeks), combined with topical antifungals like Clotrimazole or Miconazole cream, and practicing good hygiene

View allI'm dealing with acne and scars on my back and it's really frustrating. My doctor recommended Acnesol, but a few months back I tried Persol Forte and it worked better than Acnesol. The problem is that the acne comes back after I stop using it. Right now, I've gone back to using Acnesol. What should I do to finally get rid of this acne for good?
Continue using Acnesol as prescribed by your doctor. Additionally, you can incorporate Persol Forte back into your skincare routine for better results. Apply Persol Forte once daily on the affected areas after washing your back thoroughly. Make sure to follow up with a non-comedogenic moisturizer to prevent dryness. In addition to these topical treatments, consider using a body wash containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid to cleanse your back. This can help prevent new acne breakouts.

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?
candid cream for local application , tab flucanozole 150 mg once a week for 2 weeks is advised to the patient..

I'm dealing with iron deficiency and was taking Ferrium XT for it. But ever since I started, I've been breaking out with acne on my face. Do you know of any iron supplements that might not have this side effect of acne or pimples?
You can try taking Ferglow tablets, which are a gentle iron supplement that is less likely to cause side effects like acne or pimples. The recommended dosage is one tablet daily, but please consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new medication.
