Question 1

I have had itching around my belt area for 8 years. I have been using Candid B cream, but it has not fully helped. What should I do?

Dr Chandrakanth Jena · Accepted Answer

You should stop using steroid-based creams like Candid B, as they can thin the skin and worsen skin conditions over time. Please see a dermatologist for a proper examination and tests to determine whether the itching is caused by a persistent fungal infection or another skin condition. Try not to scratch the affected area and keep it clean and dry.

Question 2

My wife has frequent fungal infections under her breasts. We used Candid B ointment, but it is not helping. What treatment may help her with this problem?

Dr S Aneela · Accepted Answer

Fungal infections under the breasts often occur due to moisture, sweating, and friction in the skin folds. Keeping the area clean and completely dry and wearing loose cotton clothing may help reduce the infection. Avoid using steroid-based creams for long periods without medical advice. Consult a doctor for proper evaluation and suitable antifungal treatment.

Question 3

I have black spot and inching on my manhood, what should

Dr Bayyarapu Kumar · Accepted Answer

Black spots and itching in the genital area may arise from irritation, infections, or certain skin conditions, and while natural remedies can provide temporary relief, they do not address the underlying cause. A healthcare professional will typically evaluate symptoms by reviewing medical history, examining the skin, and, if needed, performing tests such as swabs, blood tests, or a biopsy. Based on the findings, appropriate treatment may include antifungal or antibacterial medication, topical creams for skin conditions, or guidance on hygiene and lifestyle practices. Professional consultation is essential to ensure accurate diagnosis, effective treatment, and prevention of complications.

Question 4

I have severe itching from my hips down to my toes during the summer. What could be the cause, and how can I get relief?

Dr S Aneela · Accepted Answer

Severe itching in summer from hips to toes is often due to heat, sweating, dry skin, or fungal infection. Keep the skin clean and dry, wear loose cotton clothes, and avoid excessive sweating. Consult a doctor if it persists, as antifungal or anti-allergy treatment may be needed.

Question 5

I have black spots on my penile shaft, with previous papules that disappeared after using Candid B cream. What medicine should I use for the spots, as there is no inflammation or itchiness?

Dr G Reddy · Accepted Answer

Keep the area clean and dry, wear loose cotton underwear, and avoid friction. You can apply a gentle moisturiser or aloe vera gel to help the skin heal naturally. If you want to lighten the marks faster, your doctor may suggest a mild depigmenting cream, but use it only under medical advice, as the genital area is very sensitive. If spots change in colour, size, or return with itching, see a dermatologist or urologist for a proper check-up.
