I've been dealing with these fungal infections in my groin for a while now, and they just keep coming back. I've already used about three tubes of COSVATE GM, but now my skin in that area looks all faded with these red patches underneath. I'm worriedwill my skin eventually get back to normal, or is this a lasting issue?

I'm dealing with a boil where I've managed to remove the pus, but the core hasn't come out yet. While the pain has gone down, I'm still a bit worried because I've dealt with recurring boils in the past. Right now, I'm dressing it two to three times a day and using Betadine ointment for it. I'm really careful about hygiene when cleaning the boils, but I'm not sure if Betadine is actually good for them. Could you suggest some medicine to help cure the boil and prevent them from coming back?

Take tab augmentin 625 mg orally,thrice daily for atleast 5 days .

I've had a soft tissue cell tumor on the tip of my nose for about 34 months now. It's reddish like a strawberry and was growing slowly but hasn't changed in the last month. I did CT scan and USG FNAC but they only collected blood samples. Do I need surgery for this or is there another treatment option? The color and location worry me

ent opinion is advised.
