I've been struggling with ringworm under my breast and near the vaginal and seat area for a while now. Ive tried a bunch of creams, but nothing seems to work. Its been about six months, and now my baby has it too, and so does my husband. Its really itchy and there are these red circles. What else can I do to get rid of this? Can you suggest anything that might help cure it for good?

Oral antifungal medications like Fluconazole (Diflucan) may be prescribed by a doctor. Make sure to keep the affected areas clean and dry, and avoid sharing personal items to prevent further spread of the infection.

I've noticed some wrinkles on my penis foreskin, and it has tears all around. Whenever I try to open it, it just closes back up, plus it feels pretty dry. It all started with just one tear. What's going on, and should I be worried?

I'm dealing with this pesky bump on my right cheek that's full of pus. It popped last Friday night, and I squeezed out the pus myself. But now theres a hard area near where it was, and Im wondering if its got more pus inside. What do you think I should do about it?

Given the persistent hardness and potential remaining pus near the furuncle (boil) site, consider consulting a dermatologist for further evaluation and guidance; in the meantime, continue warm compresses (3-4 times a day) to promote drainage, keep the area clean with mild soap and water, and avoid squeezing or picking at the site to prevent infection spread.
