I've been using hair removal cream and now I'm dealing with some irritation and itching around my vagina. I think it might be a side effect from the cream. Has anyone else experienced this? Since then, I've switched to waxing. What can I do to soothe the itching, and is waxing a safer option for sensitive skin in that area? Would love some advice!

View allI'm getting married on December 23, and I'm worried because my skin just isn't glowing. It seems really dull no matter what I try, and nothing is working. Do you have any suggestions for a medical facial that could help bring back that glow?
SPF 30 can be used.

I've been dealing with this really uncomfortable itch near my bikini line for almost a month now, and I'm super shy about seeing a doctor about it. The area has gotten pretty red, and it just won't stop itching. I looked it up, and it seems to be jock itch. Can anyone recommend a good cream or medicine I can try?
Based on your description, it sounds like you may be experiencing jock itch, which is a fungal infection that causes redness and itching in the groin area. You can try using an over-the-counter antifungal cream such as Lotrimin Ultra or Lamisil AT. Apply the cream to the affected area twice a day for 2-4 weeks, or as directed on the package insert. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry, wearing loose-fitting clothing, and avoiding sharing personal items can help prevent the spread of the infection.

I'm dealing with some serious itching in my butt crack, and it's driving me crazy. Living in Mumbai, the humidity makes me sweat a lot, especially down there. I also have thick body hair, which doesnt help. Even touching it lightly causes a painful burning feeling. Any advice on what could help?
I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole (brand name Canesten) twice a day in the affected area. Keep the area clean and dry, and wear loose cotton underwear to allow for better air circulation. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine (brand name Zyrtec) to help with the itching. If the symptoms persist, consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
