I've had this light black vertical stripe on my toe for about five years now. I always thought it was from my shoes, but then I read something online about it potentially being a sign of skin cancer. It's got me feeling really anxious. I havent had any pain or bleeding from it, but Id like to know if I should be concerned. What do you think it could be?

Don't worry cancer developing over toe fingers is not usual and your history says it could be stress and pressure induced pigmentation, visit Dermatologist for evaluation if its bothering you.

I've been dealing with a ringworm infection for a few days now, and I've been using Quadriderm RF cream, but it doesn't seem to be helping. The infection is spreading, mainly below the waistline, and I'm really worried. Do you have any advice or alternative treatments? What else can I try to get rid of this?
Candid cream for local application is advised for 3 weeks, along with tab flucanozole 150 mg once a week for 2 weeks is advised to the patient.
