I've got this dry, light brown patch under my eye, and the doctor suggested using fusidic acid and mometasone furoate cream. I'm a bit worried because my skin is really sensitive. Could this cream cause any additional problems? I've read some reviews and just want to make sure it's safe for me.

I'm dealing with a persistent jock itch and the whole thing is really frustrating. I first tried using Candid Dusting powder, which helped for a bit, but the itch just kept coming back. Then I went for an antifungal cream called Clobiprop NM, and while it reduced the rashes, they returned as soon as I stopped the cream. I've also tried a stronger cream, Clop GM, which seemed to reduce the rash and itch at first, but now my skin has turned white and its painful and itching again. Could you suggest what might be a good treatment or medication for this?

Plain candid cream for local application at bedtime for 2 weeks is advised to the patient ...
