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.

View allI'm dealing with jock itching every single day, and it's getting really uncomfortable. Can you explain what's causing this and is there a quick home treatment I can try to get some relief?
Jock itching, also known as tinea cruris, is a fungal infection that affects the skin in the groin area. It is commonly caused by a type of fungus called dermatophytes. The warm and moist environment of the groin area provides an ideal breeding ground for these fungi, leading to the development of jock itch. For fast home treatment of jock itching, you can use over-the-counter antifungal creams such as Clotrimazole (Canesten) or Miconazole (Monistat). Apply the cream to the affected area twice a day for at least 2 weeks, even after the symptoms have resolved, to ensure complete eradication of the fungus. Additionally, keeping the affected area clean and dry, wearing loose-fitting clothing, and avoiding sharing personal items like towels can help prevent the spread of the infection.

I'm 24 and have small xanthelasma under both eyes should I get them removed by a dermatologist or an ophthalmologist? Will they come back after surgery, and is there a risk of scarring?
Xanthelasma can be removed by dermatologist using laser or cautery; ophthalmologist is needed only if it's near eyelid margin—recurrence and mild scarring are possible.

I'm dealing with this ringworm issue on my testicles and the area around them for the past 5-6 years, and even though I've used many antifungal creams recommended by doctors, nothing seems to work. It's especially bad when I sweat a lot in the summer, and the itching gets unbearable. Do you have any advice on how I can permanently get rid of this? Any help would be really appreciated.
