I've been using Melacare for about a month to try and lighten some burn scars. They seemed to lighten up a bit, but there's still quite a bit of darkness left. I stopped using the cream a week ago, and now it seems like the marks have gotten darker and more noticeable. I'm just a bit worried about why this is happening and if I should start using the cream again or try something else?

I'm really struggling with jock itch that started on my groin and buttock area about 4 months ago. Now it's spreading like athlete's foot, and it's getting really frustrating. I've tried several treatments Quadriderm for the first couple of weeks and then Itch Guard for a month, but neither worked. I even consulted a doctor on Practo who suggested Onabet 2 cream and Terbinafine 250mg tablets, but there's been no improvement after a month. Is there any strong cream or treatment you would recommend for Tinea Cruris? I'm looking for something effective because nothing seems to be helping.

How much do glutathione injections cost in India, and are they really effective for skin whitening? I'm curious to know how long they typically take to show results and if they're worth trying. Can you provide any insights on the pricing and overall effectiveness?

I've been dealing with cracked skin in my groin area, and I remember using this cream before that felt cool when applied and it cleared up the problem in just two days. Can you recommend any similar treatments or creams that might help? Im a bit worried and would appreciate your advice!

It sounds like you may have had a fungal infection in the groin region. A cream that provides a cooling sensation and helps with fungal infections is Clotrimazole cream. Visit a Dermatologist to get a prescription.
