The main reason it has not cleared is that Clobetamil G contains a powerful steroid (clobetasol) and an antibiotic, but ringworm is actually a fungal infection. Applying steroids to a fungal infection suppresses your skin's natural immunity, which allows the fungus to thrive and survive much longer. Meanwhile, Allegra (fexofenadine) only helps manage itching, not the infection itself. Using a strong steroid for eight months can also lead to skin thinning. Please stop using Clobetamil G and consult a healthcare provider to get a proper antifungal treatment to safely clear this up.

It sounds like you are experiencing an allergic reaction, likely contact dermatitis from the hair treatment chemicals. Since you have already taken fexofenadine (Allegra), this should help reduce the itching. You can gently wash your scalp and hair with lukewarm water and a mild, fragrance-free shampoo to remove any remaining chemical residue. Applying a cool, damp compress or a mild, over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream to the affected skin can also provide relief. Please avoid scratching to prevent infection. If the rash continues to spread, or if you develop swelling in your face, lips, or have any difficulty breathing, please seek immediate medical attention.

Since fexofenadine (Allegra) hasn't helped after three days, the rash might be caused by something other than standard allergies, such as contact dermatitis, a viral infection, or a different type of skin reaction. To help soothe the itching right now, you can try applying cool compresses or an over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream. However, because it has not improved, I highly recommend visiting a healthcare provider or dermatologist.

I understand how frustrating and uncomfortable a persistent itchy rash can be, especially when antihistamines like cetirizine and Allegra aren't providing relief. Since you don't have a fever or weakness, classic dengue is less likely, though mild viral rashes can sometimes present this way. This could be a form of hives (urticaria) triggered by an allergen, stress, or even physical factors. Sometimes, stubborn rashes require a different class of medication or a short prescription treatment to fully calm the immune response. Please don't worry, but do consult your doctor or a dermatologist.

I understand how frustrating it is to deal with recurring itchy rashes and swollen lips. What you are experiencing sounds like chronic urticaria and angioedema. While there may not be an immediate permanent cure, these symptoms are highly manageable. Medications like fexofenadine (Allegra) and levocetirizine (Xevor) are excellent for keeping them under control, but stopping them too soon can cause symptoms to return. I gently encourage you to consult an allergist or dermatologist. They can help identify potential triggers, safely adjust your medication plan, or suggest longer-term treatments to help your skin heal.

In toddlers, recurrent wheezing with colds is very common and often triggered by viral infections, aggravated by Bangalore's cool, dusty weather. Food allergies are rarely the sole cause. While Asthalin (salbutamol) relieves acute wheezing, and Allegra (fexofenadine) or Ascoril manage congestion, they might not prevent episodes. Please consult your pediatrician about preventive options, such as low-dose inhaled corticosteroids using a spacer or montelukast. These daily controller medicines can significantly reduce wheezing frequency, helping him sleep and eat much better.
