I've been struggling with this itching that turned into rashes, especially on my inner thighs and under my breast, for over a year now. It seems like ringworm because it itches so badly. Even after seeing a doctor and completing the treatment, the issue just keeps coming back. What could be causing this persistent problem and what should I do to finally get rid of it?

Do you have any suggestions on what kind of food I should include in my diet or what creams or medications might help with this issue?

I've got this strange rash on my arm that I noticed a few days ago. It's just one spot, and it's circular with a scaly edge, but the center is really red. I'm wondering what it might be. Any ideas?

There is a possibility that the rash you are describing is a ringworm infection. I recommend using an antifungal cream such as Lotrimin Ultra twice a day on the affected area for 2-4 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry. If the rash does not improve or worsens, please follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I've got this bump that started off small, but after I accidentally scratched it, it got bigger. It's pretty red around the edges and really hurts when I touch it. I noticed there's some pus inside. Is it better to wait until the pus grows more before trying to squeeze it out? Then maybe take some antibiotics? I really want to get rid of this from the root, and I heard draining the pus is important. What should I do?

Yes it has to be drained out,do not squeeze it by yourself, visit surgeon for appropriate treatment
