Small, red pinhead likenrashes which seem to be deeply embedded in skin. The rash cannot be felt by running our hand across it.

View allI've been dealing with genital ringworm and initially, it was incredibly itchy. After seeing a doctor and getting the right medication, the itchiness has eased up. But I'm really worried about the scars that are still there. It's been three months, and they just don't seem to be going away. What can I do to help clear these scars up?
To help clear the scars left from genital ringworm, you can use a topical antifungal cream containing Clotrimazole 1% twice daily on the affected area. In addition, you can also apply a skin lightening cream containing Hydroquinone 4% once daily to help fade the scars. Make sure to apply sunscreen during the day to protect the skin. If the scars persist or worsen, consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm experiencing some red rashes on my skin and my scrotum has been really dry and itchy with some skin peeling. I've heard of something called red scrotum syndrome and I'm wondering if that's what this could be. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

I've heard quite a few people say that applying an ice cube on your face can help with reducing pores and redness. Is that true? Could it potentially cause any harm to the skin? Just feeling a bit worried and want to make sure it's safe before I try it out.
