I've noticed I've had some small, hard lumps under the skin on my hands for quite a while now. There are four of them, a bit noticeable but not really big. There's no redness or pain, but I'm a bit curious about what they might be. Could they be blood clots? Should I be concerned?

I've been dealing with this annoying fungal infection on my back for about 6 months now, and I'm in the UAE. I'm using TRAVOCORT cream as the doctor recommended, and it seems to work for a few days, but then the itching and irritation come back. I've noticed the symptoms seem to get worse when I eat non-veg foods like chicken, fish, or mutton, which is really frustrating. Can you help me figure out what's going on and how I can get some relief? It's becoming really uncomfortable.
To address this issue, I recommend trying an antifungal medication like Terbinafine (brand name Lamisil) in tablet form, along with a topical antifungal cream like Clotrimazole (brand name Lotrimin) to apply on the affected area. Additionally, it is important to maintain good hygiene, wear loose-fitting clothing, and avoid consuming foods that seem to trigger your symptoms. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm curious about the lotion's effects. I've heard that if you start using it, you have to keep going, or you might lose more hair. Is that actually true? Are there any side effects I should be worried about if I decide to stop using it?
