Question 1

I am facing itching with minor skin peeling. I have controlled diabetes. What medicine should I use?

Apollo Pharmacy · Accepted Answer

Itching with mild skin peeling in diabetics is frequently caused by dry skin or a fungal infection. Keep the region clean and dry, moisturize on a regular basis, and use an antifungal cream such as clotrimazole or terbinafine if it appears red or itching. If the problem is simply dryness, apply a light moisturizer such as Cetaphil or Venusia. Because diabetes raises the risk of infection, consult a doctor if symptoms do not resolve in a few days or if redness spreads.

If Candid B has not worked after a month, it may not be the proper treatment. Stop using steroid creams, keep the region clean and dry, and switch to a basic antifungal cream like clotrimazole or terbinafine. If the rash is spreading, particularly uncomfortable, or does not improve within a week, consult a dermatologist long lasting rashes may require a thorough examination or oral medicine.

Question 4

I am experiencing itching on my inner thighs and occasionally on the penis. A skin specialist said it may be a fungal infection. What should I do now?

Apollo Pharmacy · Accepted Answer

This is most likely a fungal infection (jock?itch). Wear loose cotton clothing, keep the region clean and dry, and apply an antifungal cream such clotrimazole, miconazole, or terbinafine twice a day for 2-3 weeks. Avoid scratching your underwear and change it every day. If the irritation persists or worsens after 1-2 weeks, consult a dermatologist for harsher treatment.

Question 5

For the past four months, my vaginal opening has been extremely itchy, but there has been absolutely no improvement. I'm using a combo of Drez V and Betnovate GM along with Candid B cream. Since I am also six months pregnant,

Apollo Pharmacy · Accepted Answer

Persistent vaginal itching for months during pregnancy may be due to a fungal infection like Candidiasis or other causes, and using multiple creams like Betnovate GM and Candid B for long periods, especially in pregnancy it is not advisable. You should stop self-medication and consult a gynecologist for proper examination and safe treatment. Keep the area dry, wear loose cotton underwear, avoid harsh soaps, and maintain hygiene. Proper antifungal treatment (safe in pregnancy) may be needed for complete relief.

Rashmi  sir muze bahut Garmin kee vaghse Ecching hota he

Apollo Pharmacy · Accepted Answer

For itching caused by extreme heat, apply calamine lotion or a cooling cream with menthol or aloe vera to soothe the skin. Try to stay in a cool environment, wear loose cotton clothing, and keep the skin dry to prevent further irritation. Avoid scratching, as it can worsen the itching. If the problem spreads, lasts for several days, or is accompanied by blisters or fever, it’s important to see a doctor for proper care.
