I've been struggling with lots of lice and lice eggs in my hair, and even with using Medikar and oils, nothing seems to work. My 10-year-old son is dealing with the same issue. Can you suggest some remedies for us?

View allI'm dealing with ringworm in my groin, forehead, and near my eye. The one in the groin has been particularly persistent since I got pregnant 8 months ago, and it's just not going away. I havent taken any oral meds because Im breastfeeding my 8-month-old. I've been using Terbinaforce Plus Cream and Fintop Ebernet, but I'm worried they're not enough. What can I do? Is there something else safer to try while nursing?
Ringworm (Tinea) can be challenging to treat, especially while breastfeeding. _Current Treatment_ Terbinaforce Plus Cream and Fintop + Ebernet are topical treatments that can help manage symptoms. However, the continuous presence of ringworm in your groin area suggests that the treatment might not be fully effective. _Additional Measures_ 1. _Maintain good hygiene_: Wash the affected areas with soap and water, and dry thoroughly. 2. _Change clothes and bedding regularly_: Prevent the spread of fungal spores. 3. _Avoid sharing personal items_: Towels, clothing, and other personal items can spread the infection. _Breastfeeding-Friendly Oral Medications_ Consult your doctor about oral medications that are safe while breastfeeding, such as: 1. _Griseofulvin_: An antifungal medication that can be used while breastfeeding. 2. _Fluconazole_: A single-dose oral medication that can be used to treat ringworm. _Consult a Doctor_ Schedule an appointment with your doctor to discuss: 1. _Adjusting your treatment plan_: Explore alternative topical treatments or oral medications. 2. _Ensuring the infection doesn't spread_: Get guidance on preventing the spread of ringworm to other areas. Remember to consult your doctor before making any changes to your treatment plan.

I've got a burn on my right leg, just above the foot, from falling onto a bike silencer that was on last Sunday, and now my foot's really swollen. Could you suggest some medicine or treatment to help with the swelling and pain?

I'm a 17-year-old who's sexually active and I'm a bit worried about something weird going on. I've noticed more and more small red dots on my penis, and though they don't hurt or itch, if I pinch them, they bleed a tiny bit and feel raw afterward. I had an accident a couple of weeks ago where I cut my foot on a rusty nail, but it seems fine with no infection. I'm on a school trip right now, so seeing a doctor isn't easy. Could this be something serious that I should get checked out? It's just strange because it started with only a few dots and now there are lots more all over the head and foreskin, and it's only been three days. Any idea what this could be?
That could be STD visit dermatologist as soon as possible for evaluation and appropriate management,refrain from sexual activity untill you are recovered.
