I've been dealing with a toenail fungus infection and have been on canditral 100 mg as a pulse treatmentdoing 7 days a month for the past 3 monthsand using clotrimazole USP lotion. But honestly, I haven't seen any improvement after a month of this regimen. Should I consider seeing a specialist or maybe switch up the treatment plan? Its getting a bit frustrating.

View allI've had dark knees and elbows for as long as I can remember, and it's really becoming a hassle, especially when I want to wear skirts, sleeveless tops, or dresses. I'm curious if there's any effective treatment to lighten these dark spots.
Dark knees and elbows can be frustrating. Don't worry, there are treatments to help: *Topical Treatments* 1. *Moisturizers*: Use rich moisturizers containing shea butter, coconut oil, or olive oil. 2. *Exfoliating creams*: Creams with alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) or beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs) help remove dead skin cells. 3. *Skin brightening creams*: Creams containing ingredients like kojic acid, vitamin C, or niacinamide can help reduce hyperpigmentation. *Home Remedies* 1. *Sugar scrub*: Exfoliate with a sugar scrub to remove dead skin cells. 2. *Lemon juice*: Apply lemon juice to help brighten the skin. 3. *Turmeric paste*: Mix turmeric powder with lemon juice or yogurt to create a paste that can help reduce hyperpigmentation. *Professional Treatments* 1. *Chemical peels*: A dermatologist can perform chemical peels to exfoliate the skin and reduce hyperpigmentation. 2. *Microdermabrasion*: This non-invasive exfoliating treatment can help improve skin texture and tone. 3. *Laser therapy*: Laser treatments can help reduce hyperpigmentation and improve skin texture.

I've been dealing with this constant itching on my body that's really bugging me. Weirdly, there are no rashes, but my skin underneath looks really dark, almost black. I've tried tons of allergy meds like antibiotics, evil 50, and levocet, but nothing seems to work. On top of that, I've also noticed these small bumps on my penis, and I'm worried it might be a fungal infection. Any ideas on what could be going on or what I should do next?
