I've been dealing with tinea cruris and my doctor prescribed me to take gris ODT for a couple of weeks and to use XYZal 10 mg as needed, along with Onabet cream without steroids. I followed this for two weeks and the infection seems almost gone, but the doctor advised me to continue the gris ODT for another week and the cream for two more weeks. Occasionally, I still get a light itching sensation around my area. Should I keep taking gris ODT for even longer? If so, how many more weeks should I continue? Also, can you suggest a good soap to use for the genital area?

You can use a gentle and mild soap for the genital area, such as Dove Sensitive Skin Beauty Bar or Cetaphil Gentle Cleansing Bar. Make sure to avoid harsh soaps or those with strong fragrances to prevent irritation. Yes, you should continue taking Gris ODT as advised by your doctor. I recommend continuing Gris ODT for another week to ensure the infection is completely gone

View allI'm a bit confused about how to use the acnewar gel that my doctor prescribed. Should I wash my face with water after applying the gel and then use the face wash my doctor recommended? Or do I just use the face wash directly after putting on the acnewar gel? I'm not really sure what the correct order is.
When using Acnewar gel and a prescribed face wash, follow this order: 1. *Apply Acnewar gel*: Directly apply a thin layer of Acnewar gel to the affected areas. 2. *Wait for 15-30 minutes*: Allow the gel to absorb and work on the acne. 3. *Wash your face with the prescribed face wash*: Use lukewarm water and a small amount of face wash to cleanse your face. 4. *Rinse thoroughly*: Rinse your face with lukewarm water to remove all residue. Do not mix Acnewar gel with the face wash. Apply the gel first, wait, and then wash your face with the prescribed face wash.

I've been dealing with this skin issue for a couple of years now. It first showed up at the Thai and now there's this constant khujli affecting my entire body. A year ago, it seemed like things were finally getting better, almost like I was in the clear for good. But recently, it's come back with a vengeance and feels worse than ever. What kind of medicine should I be looking into? Are there specific things I should be doing or avoiding to help with this?

My son has been having these black spots on his palms and feet lately and they're really itchy. The spots seem to be growing and they're actually under the skin, not on top. The skin over these spots feels hard, kind of like how it looks on people who do a lot of weightlifting or use shovels a lot. Plus, he sweats a lot, especially on his hands and feet. Really worried about whats going on here, any ideas?
