I've been having a burning and painful sensation between my hips for about a week now, and it seems to be because of this pimple-like thing that popped up. The pain is spreading all over that area, and it's really uncomfortable. Could you suggest any ointments or tablets that might help me get rid of it? I'm really worried and could use some advice on what to do.

I'm dealing with this issue after having my baby, and it's been 45 days since she was born. Is there a way to treat this? It's becoming really itchy, and I've noticed patches developing on my daughter's skin as well. I'm worried if it's something that can spread. What steps should I take to handle this?

I've been dealing with an issue on my face and underarms for about a year now. I've tried using luliconazole and ketoconazole ointments, and even took oral tablets like onecan and itraconazole, but nothing seems to fully solve the problem. The ketoconazole ointment seems to control it for a bit, but then it just comes back. Can you please help me figure out what's going on?

That could be fungal infection which needs both oral and topical antifungal medications and personal hygiene is more important for such condition.
