I've started using Erythego gel and Ivermectin cream because my face was feeling hot and burning with some redness. At first, the redness seemed to get better, but the burning feeling didn't really go away. It only stops for a bit when I put on the medicine, but the rest of the time, my face still feels warm. I'm starting to wonder if these medications could be making the burning worse instead of helping me. Could they be causing the redness, too?

I'm using Dermadew face cream because my doctor recommended it, but now my skin is itching and flaking. Is this a typical reaction, or should I consider stopping the cream?

I've had this jock itch issue for quite some time now. I got some fungal cream from my doctor which helped for a while, but it just keeps coming back. Lately, with all the work I've been doing, it's gotten worse and now it's on my buttocks too. Today, I found a painful bump in my groin area about the size of a nickel, and pus started coming out. I looked it up and it seems like it's a boil. I'm really worried and just want to get rid of the jock itch and this boil. What should I do?
