I've been experiencing itching on my hands and legs for the past week, but there's no redness or visible spots on my skin. It seems to start the day after I drink alcohol and hasn't stopped since. I checked online, and it suggests that internal illness might show up first as itchy skin. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

Itching on hands and legs without visible redness or spots, triggered by alcohol consumption, could be related to various internal factors, such as liver or kidney issues, allergic reactions, or nutrient deficiencies, and while Google searches can provide insights, it's essential to consult a healthcare professional for personalized evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment, as they will likely order blood tests, medical history, and physical examination to determine the underlying cause of your itching sensation.

I've noticed some cut marks on my wrist that have turned quite dark and are looking pretty bad. I'm really concerned and wondering if there's anything I can do to help reduce these scars or lighten them up. It's really affecting how I feel about my appearance. Can you offer any advice or treatments that might work?

For treating dark and unsightly scars on your wrist, you can use a silicone gel such as Dermatix Ultra. Apply a thin layer of the gel on the scar twice daily. Additionally, you can also consider using a scar lightening cream like Mederma. Apply the cream on the scar once daily. Remember to follow the instructions on the packaging for best results.

I'm really struggling with a persistent fungal infection between my legs that's been bothering me for the past few months. I've tried using antifungal creams like Soframycin, Fourderm, and Betnovate N, and while they seemed to help initially, the infection always returns after a few days, especially around my private parts. Can you suggest any stronger or more effective antifungal treatments that might help clear this up for good? It's starting to really concern me.

Candid cream for local application is advised for 3 weeks, along with tab flucanozole 150 mg once a week for 2 weeks is advised to the patient.
