I've been struggling with a fungal infection on my scrotum for about 2 years now and I've tried so many different medications like terbinafine, fluconazole, and griseofulvin, along with fexofenadine and levocetirizine, and even injections like Taxim and Mocef, but nothing seems to work. Itraconazole helped a bit but still hasn't cleared it up completely. I'm really not sure what to do next. Can you give me some advice?

View allI've been dealing with acne and my face is always oily. I'm currently using Lacne Bar and Acnilite ZN but it seems like the issue is getting out of hand. Could you recommend any medication or other ways to help me control the oil and acne?
I recommend adding a topical retinoid cream like Retino-A to your current regimen for acne. Apply a pea-sized amount on the affected areas at night. For oily skin, you can use Sebamed Clear Face Care Gel to control oil production. Additionally, consider using a gentle cleanser like Cetaphil Oily Skin Cleanser twice a day. Remember to use a non-comedogenic moisturizer like Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisture SPF 15 during the day. Make sure to follow this regimen consistently for best results.

I'm really struggling with acne and pigmentation issues that I've had for the past two months. My doctor put me on zithrox 250 three times a week for three months, and I'm using acnicin sunscreen and acne uv gel with SPF 30, plus a hyperpigmentation cream with tyrodin, kojic acid, arbutin, vitamin C, and vitamin E. The acne's cleared up, but I still have some marks and scars left, especially on my cheeks. Any advice on what I can do next?

I've been having these white patches on my scrotal area, and they're itching quite a bit. A friend mentioned it could be a fungal thing, so I tried using some anti-fungal powder. The itching's getting a bit better each day, but the white patches aren't really shrinking. What do you think I should do next?
It sounds like you may be dealing with a fungal infection such as jock itch. In addition to using an antifungal powder, you can also try using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply it to the affected area twice a day for about 2-4 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry. If the white patches do not improve or if they worsen, it would be best to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
