I've got this painful pimple near my nipple, and I think it started because of an ingrown hair. I'm really worried about it and not sure what to do next. Should I see a doctor for something like this, or is there anything I can try at home to make it go away and prevent any infection?

I'm living in Qatar and have been dealing with a fungal infection for about 11 months. I'm on treatment, but it doesn't seem to be working. Can you please give me some advice on what else I could try or if there's a different treatment approach I should consider?
For fungal infections that are not responding to treatment, it's important to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation. However, in cases of persistent fungal infections, antifungal medications such as Terbinafine (brand name Lamisil) or Fluconazole (brand name Diflucan) may be prescribed. The dosage and duration of treatment will depend on the severity of the infection and your individual medical history. It's important to follow the treatment plan as prescribed by your healthcare provider.

I've been dealing with acne since I was 15, and it's gotten worse now that I'm 20. I tried some Ayurvedic treatments, but they didn't really help. A dermatologist recommended clarithromycin and tretinoin cream, which showed minimal improvement for a bit, but now my acne's back and even worse. Is there any real, lasting solution out there?
Clinsol gel for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks.
