I've been using betnovate n cream for the past 6 years, but I stopped about 15 days ago. Now my face is really red and itchy, with dry skin and tiny blisters. I've tried using Cetaphil lotion and cleanser, which helped with the redness and dryness, but the blisters and itchiness won't go away. Can you please help me figure out what to do?

I've been dealing with a ringworm for a couple of years now, and it just doesn't seem to go away no matter how many doctors I see. I'm starting to feel a bit desperate. What could be going wrong, and how should I approach getting rid of it for good?

Despite being diagnosed and treated by multiple doctors, your persistent ringworm infection over the past two years suggests that the underlying cause might not have been fully addressed; consider consulting a dermatologist for a re-evaluation, as they may recommend additional tests, such as a skin scraping or biopsy, to confirm the diagnosis and identify any underlying conditions, such as a fungal, bacterial, or parasitic infection, and provide targeted treatment, which may include antifungal medications, creams, or ointments.

I'm curious if there are any side effects of using Glyaha Koj lotion. A dermatologist recommended it to me for removing a tan and it's been really effective for me, so I keep using it when I get tanned. Could there be any negative effects from using this lotion?

Glyaha Koj lotion, containing kojic acid, is generally considered safe for skin brightening and tan removal, but long-term or excessive use may lead to side effects like skin irritation, redness, itching, or dryness, and rare cases of allergic contact dermatitis have been reported, so continue using it with caution and discontinue if you experience any adverse reactions.
