Question 5

Can Candid B cream be used for treating Jock Itch? Also, is it necessary to keep the affected area open to air after apllying the cream?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Candid B cream can help treat jock itch as it contains antifungal and anti-inflammatory agents. Apply a thin layer to clean, dry skin twice daily. Keep the area clean and dry, but it’s not mandatory to leave it exposed after applying the cream—just avoid tight clothing to allow airflow and prevent moisture buildup. If symptoms persist, consult a doctor.

Question 6

I have a dry skin patch on my right under thigh there is no itch or discomfort .kindly suggest some ointment

Accepted Answer

Since there's no itch or discomfort, you can try the following over-the-counter (OTC) ointments:

1. *Moisturizing creams*: Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream, Eucerin Advanced Repair Cream, or CeraVe Moisturizing Cream.
2. *Hydrocortisone cream*: A mild steroid cream like hydrocortisone (0.5-1%) can help reduce inflammation and dryness.
3. *Urea-based creams*: Urea (10-20%) creams, such as Eucerin Advanced Repair Cream or Aquaphor Healing Ointment, can help lock in moisture.
4. *Vaseline*: Petroleum jelly (Vaseline) can provide a protective barrier and help retain moisture.

Apply the ointment 2-3 times a day, or as needed. If the patch persists or worsens, consult a doctor or dermatologist for further guidance.
