I've been using Meghlow cream on my face for the past couple of months, and I've noticed that my skin is getting darker than it was before. Could this be an issue with the cream or is something else going on? Also, do you have any recommendations for a better cream for both my face and neck? I've heard about Panderm NM creamwhat are your thoughts on that?

View allI've always had these dark patches on both sides of my scrotum, but the one on the left is bigger. I thought maybe it was because of sweat since I usually sleep on my left side. Recently, though, I've not been bathing as regularly, and with the summer heat, I've been sweating a lot around my groin area. Now those dark patches have spread to my thighs and maybe under the scrotum too, and they're itching really badly. Could this be jock itch? When I wash it, the skin looks a bit red, but it's mostly dark and has a different texture. I've got a couple of concerns. Can tinea cruris get this bad so suddenly? Like, I didnt have any itching a few days ago, and now its spreading super fast. And what about those dark patches from before? Were they just because of sweat, or was it something else? How long do you think it will take to heal if I use over-the-counter clotrimazole?

I've been dealing with these recurring pus-filled boils on my thighs and upper leg area. There's always this redness and swelling around them, and they keep coming back. It's getting really frustrating and I just want to know what's causing them and how I can prevent them. Any advice?
Recurring pus filled boils on the thighs and upper leg area with redness and swelling indicate a skin infection. This may be due to a bacteria called Staphylococcus aureus. To treat this condition, you can use an antibiotic ointment containing Mupirocin applied to the affected area three times a day. In addition, an oral antibiotic like Cephalexin 500mg four times a day for 7-10 days can also be prescribed to help clear the infection. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid tight clothing to prevent further irritation.
