I've been experiencing this intense burning sensation on my arm that came out of nowhere while I was just lying down, and now there's this mysterious spot that appeared. I'm on a medication called Prothedian. Could the spot be connected to the medication, or should I be worried about something else? What do you think might be going on?

I'm currently taking Lulifin 1, Allegra 180, and Sebifin Syntran 200 mg, but my condition seems to be getting worse. Could you please advise on what I should do next?

It seems like you may be dealing with a fungal infection that is spreading despite your current medications. I would recommend adding an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole (Canesten) to your treatment regimen. Apply it to the affected area twice a day for about 2 weeks. Additionally, you may consider taking an oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole (Diflucan) 150 mg once a week for 4 weeks to help clear up the infection from within. Remember to maintain good hygiene practices and keep the affected area clean and dry.

I was wondering what the difference is between scalp psoriasis and dandruff. I'm a bit worried because I'm dealing with some issues on my scalp and can't tell if it's just dandruff or something more like psoriasis. I've attached a few images hoping you could help me figure it out. Could you take a look and let me know your thoughts?

Scalp psoriasis is a skin condition characterized by red, scaly patches on the scalp, while dandruff is a common condition marked by flaking of the scalp skin. To treat scalp psoriasis, you can use medicated shampoos containing coal tar, salicylic acid, or ketoconazole. In addition, topical corticosteroids or calcipotriene can be applied to the affected areas.
