I'm feeling warm all the time, but I don't have a fever. It's odd, and I'm not sure what's causing it. What could be the reason for this?

This can be caused by various underlying issues such as infections, inflammation, thyroid disorders, or certain medications. I recommend consulting with a healthcare provider for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.

I'm dealing with a fungal infection on my penis and FourDerm cream helped clear it up in just a few days, but now I have about 23 spots left. One of them is a noticeably bigger red spot. Are these spots part of the healing process, or should I be worried? How long might it take for my skin to look normal again?

Atleast 4-6 weeks..

I've been using Fexo 180 for a couple of days now, but I'm still having really itchy and irritated skin. It's kind of frustrating, and honestly, I just want the itchiness to stop. I'm a 25-year-old female. Any advice on what I can do about this?

Persistent skin irritation and itching despite taking Fexo 180 may indicate that the medication is not effectively controlling your symptoms. You can try switching to another antihistamine such as Cetirizine 10mg once daily or Loratadine 10mg once daily. Additionally, you can apply a soothing lotion like Calamine lotion to the affected areas to help relieve the itching. If the symptoms continue, it is advisable to consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
