I've been dealing with these ringworms for a year now, and they're on both sides of my butt. It's really frustrating because nothing seems to help. The itching just won't stop, but normally I try not to scratch and use a dryer to calm it a bit. What else can I do to finally get some relief?

That could be Fungal infection, maintain personal hygiene and visit Dermatologist for evaluation and appropriate treatment.

I'm dealing with this really annoying skin thing that seems like ring guard or something similar. It's causing a lot of itching and burning sensations. Do you have any ideas on what kind of medication might help with this?

This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.

I've been dealing with these sores on my butt for a couple of months now, and they're really bothering me. They just won't heal or disappear, and when I mess with them, they get scabby and even bleed sometimes. They're just persistent sores that seem to scab over but never actually go away. What could this be, and how can I get rid of them?

1. *Pressure sores*: Prolonged sitting or pressure on the area can cause sores. 2. *Skin infections*: Bacterial, fungal, or viral infections can cause persistent sores. 3. *Anal fissures*: Small tears in the anal lining can cause painful sores. 4. *Hemorrhoids*: Swollen veins in the rectum can cause painful sores. *What to Do* 1. *See a doctor*: Consult a primary care physician, dermatologist, or proctologist for a proper diagnosis. 2. *Keep the area clean*: Gently wash the area with mild soap and lukewarm water. 3. *Avoid scratching*: Scratching can further irritate the sores and lead to infection. 4. *Apply topical creams*: Over-the-counter creams like hydrocortisone or antibiotic ointments may help soothe the sores.
