I've been dealing with a tinea infection recently and after consulting with my doctor, I took fluconazole tablets. While the infection is gone now, it's left me with these large black patches on my skin. Could you recommend a cream or treatment to help get my skin back to its original color?

I'm really concerned about my pinky finger. A few days ago, it got really itchy, and I noticed a bubble-like thing on it. I popped it with a needle yesterday, and now it's gotten worse. It's slightly itchy, it hurts, and my finger seems swollen today. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm dealing with some intense vaginal itching and already tried mustard oil, but it didn't help at all. I'm wondering what else I can do. Is it okay for me to try using Calosoft or Caster NF? I'm really anxious to find something that works.

calasoft is advised to the patient.
