I've been using Betnovate-N cream for about 10 years, usually applying it at night in a thick layer. I stopped using it two months ago, and now I'm dealing with redness, itching, dry skin, and small blisters on my face. I've tried using aloe vera, glycerin, and a Cetaphil cleanser, but I'm still experiencing these issues along with pimples. Do you have any suggestions or remedies to help me get rid of these side effects? I'm really worried about my skin.

View allI've been dealing with these boils in my pubic area for a few days now, and they're making it tough for me to walk. I've tried using a hot compress and antifungal powder, which helps a bit, but only temporarily. I'm not sure what more I can do. Just in case it matters, I haven't eaten sweets in over two months. Any advice on this would be really appreciated. What could be causing these, and how can I treat them effectively?
It sounds like you may be dealing with a bacterial infection causing the boils. I recommend using an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin or Bacitracin on the boils after cleansing the area with mild soap and water. Additionally, you can take oral antibiotics like Augmentin or Bactrim to help clear up the infection. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid tight clothing to reduce friction. If the boils persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.P.s I haven't had sweets since more than 2 months..."

I've been noticing there's a white spot on one of my nails lately. I have diabetes and hypertension, so I'm a bit worried. Could this be related, and how can I treat it? What would you suggest I do next?
No need to worry that could be due to mineral deficiency,consume balanced diet and more fruits that would resolve

I'm a 35-year-old guy working as a software engineer with regular hours from 10 AM to 7 PM in Bangalore, Karnataka, India. Each summer, I'm dealing with this burning sensation on the top of my right foot, just behind my toes. It's weird because it only happens when I'm trying to sleep, causing me to wake up sometimes in the middle of the night. Any idea what could be causing this or how to get rid of it?
it can be peripheral neuropathy
