My dad's been dealing with some pretty bad lower back pain and ended up using way too much pain relief balm. Now, his skin looks burnt. Do you have any home remedies that might help with this?

I'm a 27-year-old woman and I'm dealing with an armpit yeast infection. I tried Clobetasol but didn't see any improvement. Now, I'm using Whitfield's ointment with Benzoic Acid and Salicylic Acid. Can this really help with the yeast infection, or is there a better medication I should consider?

Whitfield's ointment containing Benzoic Acid and Salicylic Acid is not typically used to treat yeast infections. For yeast infections, antifungal medications are usually recommended. You can try using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole (Canesten) or Miconazole (Monistat). Apply the cream to the affected area twice a day for about 1-2 weeks. If the infection persists or worsens, it's best to consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
