View allI've got a small lump on my cheek that popped up a few hours after I woke up. It's lighter than my normal skin tone, and I can't figure out what it is or how it happened. It's really noticeable and I'm a bit worried. What could this be?

I'm a 27-year-old woman and I'm dealing with an armpit yeast infection. I tried Clobetasol but didn't see any improvement. Now, I'm using Whitfield's ointment with Benzoic Acid and Salicylic Acid. Can this really help with the yeast infection, or is there a better medication I should consider?
Whitfield's ointment containing Benzoic Acid and Salicylic Acid is not typically used to treat yeast infections. For yeast infections, antifungal medications are usually recommended. You can try using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole (Canesten) or Miconazole (Monistat). Apply the cream to the affected area twice a day for about 1-2 weeks. If the infection persists or worsens, it's best to consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I've been dealing with jock itch in my inner thigh and groin area for over three years now, but I've never actually gone to a doctor because it didn't seem like a big deal. It mostly itches at night, and the intensity variessome days it's better, and then it gets worse again. I've tried applying Candid Dusting Powder and Sebefin cream, which helped my brother when he had this issue, but it didn't work for me. I also tried Suthol and Itch Guard, but no luck there either. The skin's become dark, and these little pimples keep popping up that take forever to go away. It's not spreading much, and maybe that's why I haven't seen a doctor yet. But now I really want to get rid of it. Any idea on what I should do?
