I've been struggling with dandruff and heard that tea tree oil might help. I'm curious if it actually works, and if it does, should I use it straight or mix it with coconut oil? Would love some advice on how to apply it properly.

I've been dealing with a stubborn fungal infection on my skin for about 6 months now. I've started using Fourderm, and while it seemed to work initially, the infection comes back after just a couple of days. I'm frustrated and unsure of what to do next. Is there something I'm missing or another treatment I should try?

Given the recurring nature of your fungal infection, consider consulting a dermatologist to reassess the treatment plan; meanwhile, continue using Fourderm cream as directed, and complement it with additional measures: keep the affected area clean and dry, wear loose cotton clothing, avoid sharing personal items, and apply an antifungal powder or spray to prevent moisture accumulation, which can help reduce the frequency of recurrence.
