I've had this medium-sized fungal issue near my upper thigh for the past month. I've tried various treatments like the Gurda tube, but it's still lingering. Could you suggest what else I might try for these types of fungal infections? I'm worried and hoping for some guidance on what I can do next.

I'm concerned about my skin. I recently used Mometasone for a few days to treat the red color I get from PLE, and while it helped, I feel like my skin has become thinner. I only applied it at night for a week. Now, whenever I travel or go outdoors, the redness comes back. How can I make my skin thicker again?

I'm curious if there's any link between dandruff and masturbation. I've noticed that when I do masturbate during the week, I end up with a lot of dandruff in my hair, but if I don't, there's less dandruff. It's brown in color. This didn't happen before I started masturbating, but now it's becoming an issue. What could be going on here?

Dandruff in hair is usually caused by a fungal infection called Malassezia. Masturbation does not directly cause dandruff. However, stress and hormonal changes associated with sexual activity may contribute to dandruff flare-ups in some individuals. To address the dandruff issue, you can try using an anti-dandruff shampoo containing ketoconazole or selenium sulfide. Use the shampoo at least twice a week, leaving it on for 5-10 minutes before rinsing off. If the problem persists, consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.
