I've been experiencing some intense itching all over my body and head, and it started around 1 pm. There are areas that have become swollen and red, and my fingers are really swollen too. This happened just a couple of hours after I took MOX 500 and a painkiller following a tooth extraction. Do you think the MOX could be causing this?

Allergic reactions to antibiotics like Amoxicillin can manifest as itching, swelling, and redness on the skin, as well as swelling of the fingers. It is important to stop taking MOX 500 and the painkiller immediately and seek medical attention. For the itching and swelling, you can take an antihistamine such as Cetirizine 10mg once daily. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

View all2 days ago, I accidentally touched the hot silencer of my bike with the lower part of my leg just above my feet. I quickly did a cold compress and have been using Silverex Ionic on it since. Now, the skin has turned dark and dry, and I'm noticing a lot of blisters that keep breaking. Most of the time a water-like substance is coming out of them. What medications should I take? I'm also attaching some pictures from when the accident happened and what it looks like now. Any advice would be appreciated.

I'm dealing with a nail issue and it's actually gotten worse after taking fluconazole and glevo. I've also heard about something called oxychomycosui disease and I'm kind of worried if it might be related. Could you help me understand what's going on and what I should do next?
Treatment for nail issues and onychomycosis disease can include the use of antifungal medications. In this case, since the nail issue worsened after fluconazole and levofloxacin (Glevo), it is important to consider alternative antifungal medications. Additionally, topical antifungal medications like Ciclopirox (brand name Penlac) nail lacquer can be applied daily. It is important to continue treatment consistently as prescribed by your healthcare provider to see improvement in the nail condition.
