Question 1

I'm really worried about this recurring fungal infection I've had for the last 10 years. It mostly flares up on my thighs, and it's really frustrating. Do you have any suggestions on how to manage or prevent it?

Accepted Answer

This type of fungal infection in the thighs can be treated with antifungal medications. I recommend using **Clotrimazole cream** twice daily on the affected areas for at least 2-4 weeks. Additionally, taking **Fluconazole** tablets once a week for 4-6 weeks can also help in treating the infection. It is important to maintain good hygiene and keep the affected areas clean and dry to prevent recurrence.

Question 2

I've been struggling with a skin allergy on my lower back for about three years now, and nothing seems to work. I've tried so many medicines, but I just can't seem to find relief. What should I do? How can I finally solve this problem?

Accepted Answer

That could be fungal infection which needs both oral and topical antifungal medications and personal hygiene is more important for such condition.

Question 3

I'm a bit confused about when exactly I should be using sunscreen. Do I really need to keep reapplying it all day long, even in the evening or at night? Or is it okay to skip it once the sun goes down?

Accepted Answer

It is necessary to use it all day long. Should we apply sunscreen even at evening and night time ?? Or no need to apply it after sunset.. Sunscreen should be applied every day, regardless of the time of day. It is recommended to apply sunscreen in the morning before going out and to reapply every 2 hours, especially if you are outdoors. Even in the evening and at night, if you are going to be exposed to artificial light sources such as fluorescent bulbs or screens, it is advisable to continue using sunscreen to protect your skin from harmful UV rays.

Clinsol gel for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks.
