I've been dealing with these red bumps and itching along the sides of my waist for over a year now. The doctor gave me some medicine to take and told me to use Tenovate cream until it cleared up. But as soon as I stop using the cream, the problem comes back within just a couple of days. It's leaving dark spots and making my waist look kind of ugly. It's not about hygieneI shower daily, even twice sometimes. My clothes are clean, though I do wear some tight clothing from time to time. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm really concerned because I have dandruff and some rashes on my scalp, and my doctor suggested using Kz lotion and CandidB lotion. But I forgot to ask how exactly I should be using both of these together. Could you guide me on how to apply them properly? Should they be used at different times, or can I mix them? I'm a bit unsure and want to make sure I'm doing it right.

Use KZ lotion on your scalpapply it, leave it for 3-5 minutes, and then rinse off. For Candid-B, apply a thin layer only on the rash-affected areas of your scalp, twice daily, unless told otherwise. Keep both away from your eyes, and if irritation happens, let your doctor know.

I've been dealing with this constant itching all over my body for the past couple of weeks. The weird part is that when I itch, my skin starts to swell up and I get these temporary rashes, especially on my back. I'm a bit worried and not sure what's causing it, and I can't get to a good dermatologist right now. Do you have any idea what this might be or what I can do in the meantime?

Thats Urticaria,identify the allergen and avoid it,also visit dermatologist for appropriate management
