I've been having this really awful fishy smell in my groin area and it's driving me crazy. I wash a lot, but it doesn't seem to help. I've tried using some rubbing alcohol like Seabreeze and it helps for a couple of days, but then it's back again after I sweat at night. I'm worried and not sure what to do next. Any ideas?

I got bit on my face by a Nairobi fly and I've tried different ointments, but it seems to be spreading instead of healing. I'm using Colgate now because it's helped others, but I'm really worried about this spreading further. Can you help me figure out what to do?
1. Stop using Colgate: While it may have worked for others, using toothpaste on skin can be irritating and dry out the skin, making the situation worse. 2. Clean the area: Wash the affected area with mild soap and lukewarm water to remove any bacteria or debris. 3. Apply a topical antibiotic ointment: Use a topical antibiotic ointment, such as Neosporin or Bacitracin, to help prevent infection and promote healing. 4. Use a hydrocortisone cream: Apply a hydrocortisone cream to reduce inflammation and itching. 5. Avoid scratching: Scratching can lead to further irritation, infection, and scarring. If the symptoms persist, worsen,seek medical attention

I had a leech bite on my toe about a week ago while I was hiking, and now it's still really itchy and the area feels hard. What kind of doctor should I consult about this? Are there any good home remedies I could try in the meantime to help with the itching and hardness?
