I've been experiencing this unexpected itching on my feet, hands, and sometimes even my neck. It usually goes away on its own after about 30 minutes, but it's been happening for the last 25 days. Any advice on what might be causing this or how I can stop it?

I'm a bit worried because I accidentally poked myself on the face with the sharp end of a blackhead extractor, which felt a lot like a sewing needle. After that, about 12 drops of blood came out. The extractor was new and all I did was rinse it with water before using it. Should I be concerned about getting an infection or any kind of disease from this?

Yes take tetanus shot and get your wound cleaned properly for good healing.

I'm dealing with a fungal infection between my thighs and buttocks area. My doctor recommended Ebernet, but unfortunately, it hasn't helped much. Do you have any other ointment suggestions that might be more effective? I'm worried about the discomfort and would appreciate any help you can provide.
