I've noticed that the skin on my thighs has gotten darker, especially around the buttocks area, and there are these itchy ring-like spots. I was on antibiotics for a jock itch for ten days as my physician advised, but it seems to have come back. I'm now using an antifungal powder from Cipla, but it's not really helping. Could you advise me on what steps I should take next?

View allI'm 28 and suddenly dealing with acne, which is totally new to me. My dermatologist put me on Isotretinoin 20 mg, but now I'm worried. They warned me about not getting pregnant during treatment and mentioned something about contraception, but I'm more concerned about what happens after. Is it safe to try for a baby 6 months later? Could there be any impact on my fertility or sexual health? Would really appreciate some clarity on this.

I'm feeling really uncomfortable with this redness and burning sensation around my anus. It's also kind of soft to touch. I'm not sure what's causing this, and it's making me really anxious. Could this be something serious? What can I do to alleviate it?
To help alleviate the redness, burning sensation, and softening of the skin around the anus, you can try using over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream to reduce inflammation and itching. Additionally, sitz baths with warm water several times a day can also provide relief. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid using harsh soaps or wipes. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.
