I've been struggling with ringworm on my groin and thigh for the last 7 years, and its getting really intense. The itchiness gets worse at night and now it's spreading all over my thigh. I'm desperate to find the best treatment for this. Could you help me with what medicine might work to finally get rid of it?

I want to get rid of xanthelasma around my eyes but I'm worried about surgery or laser treatments. Are there any other options that work without going under the knife or using lasers?

Yes, there are non-surgical and non-laser options for treating xanthelasma. Cryotherapy (freezing with liquid nitrogen), radiofrequency ablation, and electrodesiccation are all effective methods for removing or diminishing the appearance of xanthelasma without surgery. Additionally, lifestyle modifications and medical treatments for underlying health conditions can help manage the condition and prevent recurrence

I'm really worried because I've had 20 injections of dexamethasone, gentamycin, and deriphyllin in my buttocks over 5 days. Didn't feel any pain during the injections, but now, two days later, there's pain and these lumps have formed on both sides. Been using thromophob cream and taking Zerodol SP for 10 days, but the lumps and pain aren't going away. What should I do?
