Question 1

I've got an infection between the third and fourth toes on my left foot. It's been really dry and painful sometimes. I've been dealing with it for a couple of years now. I've tried oral meds from general physicians and even ointments like terbinafine, candiderma, and paxoderm. It's really annoying. Any suggestions on what I could do to finally get rid of it?

Accepted Answer

that could be eczema if untreated would progress,moisturize the affected area regularly and visit dermatologist for appropriate treatment.

Question 2

I've been dealing with a fungal infection and now I've noticed some stretch marks appearing too. It's really been bothering me and I'm not sure what to do about it. Could you give me some advice on how to treat both the infection and the marks? It's been really uncomfortable and I'm worried about it.

Accepted Answer

Stretch marks happen only if you use steroid creams. You may be suffering from tinea cruris which is fungal infection of the inner thighs, groin and buttocks area. It is also called jock itch. It can be treated by taking four to six weeks of anti fungal treatment which includes tablets along with creams. Do not use soap over that area. Mistreatment with over the counter Steroid containing creams like fourderm, panderm, quadriderm, dermi5, betnovate, candid b etc lead to repeated case of recurrence and also side effects due to application. Do not use steroid containing combination creams.

Question 3

I've got this pretty big lump, even bigger than a quarter, right in my butt crack, about three inches from my anus. I think it might have pus in it. I've had smaller lumps like this before, but they've never been this big or painful. What could be going on, and should I be worried about it?
