I'm having some trouble with rashes or a fungal infection in my inner thighs, and even though I've been using creams like Candid Total and Clobetta GM, its just not getting better. Its actually spreading to my buttocks too. Could you suggest what I should do to get some relief?

Sharp pains from kidney stones can be excruciating. Since Mefatal Spas isn't providing sufficient relief, consider the following options:

Consult your doctor about alternative pain management options, such as:

NSAIDs like Ibuprofen (Brufen) or Diclofenac (Voveran)

Muscle relaxants like Baclofen

Opioid analgesics (if prescribed by your doctor)

In addition to medication:

Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water (at least 8-10 glasses a day)

Apply heat: Use a warm compress or heating pad on the affected area

Rest: Get plenty of rest to help your body cope with the pain

If the pain persists or worsens, seek immediate medical attention.

I'm dealing with this ring guard on my skin, and it's starting to spread to the lower part of my body. I'm really worried about it. Here are some pictures. Can you help me figure out what's going on and what I should do?

You may have a fungal infection. I recommend using an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer to the affected area twice a day for 2-4 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to help with the healing process. If the infection does not improve or worsens, please follow up with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.

I've had a keloid problem for the last 3 years and now I have big keloid marks like thick lines on my hand. I'm thinking about plastic surgery but I'm scared because what if the stitches from the surgery also turn into keloids? Will that happen?

I've been having these recurring skin allergies for about a year now. It's mostly around my pubic area, under my knee, and on my hip, and it's really itchy and red. I've tried taking itraconazole 100mg, and it helps for a bit, but then the problem just comes back. I'm really not sure what to do next. Could you give me any advice or suggest something I might be missing?
