Question

I've been dealing with whiteheads on my nose, and I've made a habit of picking at them. Recently, though, the skin on my nose started peeling, and now it's looking darker compared to the surrounding areas, plus there's this horizontal dark line running across it. I'm worried and wondering: will my skin eventually recover from this on its own? Should I be doing something different to help it heal?

Question

I've been dealing with a persistent fever of around 102 F for the last couple of days and got my blood checkedturns out its viral fever. Now, even though the fevers gone, I've started getting really itchy skin, especially when I lie down. It's mostly on the soles of my feet and palms, but there are no rashes or redness. Im struggling to sleep at night because of this itchiness. Any idea what might be causing this?

Question

I've been dealing with ringworm on the inner part of my thigh for about 9 months now. It seems to heal when I use medicine, but then it just comes back over and over. It even flares up after I itch it. I've tried using IT Mac 200, Terbest, and a bunch of other antifungal creams, but it keeps returning. I'm really frustrated and wondering if this is something that's going to stick around forever, or if there's anything else I can do to finally get rid of it. Any advice?
