Question 1

Hi doc, Ive had a persistent fever for the past 4 days and recently developed blisters all over my body, especially on my face, scalp, chest, arms, and legs. A local doctor diagnosed it as chickenpox and prescribed Triz, Valtovol 500mg, and Voltaflam 50mg. I started taking the meds last night, and the blisters are becoming less painful and turning black, which I hope means theyre healing. However, Im getting tiny blisters on my penis and glans, and its worrying me. It hurts a little when I urinate. Could this be a result of chickenpox, or is it something else? Let me know if you need more info.

Question 3

Can I use Melacare cream for skin lightening on my face? Also, does Melacare have any risk of causing skin cancer? Please let me know.

Accepted Answer

Melacare cream is a combination medication containing Hydroquinone, Tretinoin, and Mometasone. It is commonly used to lighten dark patches of skin. However, prolonged and indiscriminate use of hydroquinone can lead to side effects such as skin irritation, redness, and thinning of the skin. Tretinoin can also cause skin irritation and sensitivity to sunlight. Mometasone, if used for a long time, can lead to skin thinning and increased risk of infections. Regarding the risk of skin cancer, there is no direct evidence linking the use of Melacare cream to skin cancer. However, it is important to use this medication under the guidance of a healthcare professional and to follow the recommended dosage and duration of treatment to minimize the risk of side effects.

Accepted Answer

Since you have been suffering for 3 months, it is important to consider a different approach. This sounds like a case of fungal infection, possibly a persistent one. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream twice daily on the affected areas for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, taking oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 4 weeks can also help clear the infection completely. Make sure to keep the affected areas clean and dry, and wear loose-fitting clothing to aid in the healing process.
