Asked for female, 24 years old from Pune

Hi, my face has become very sensitive to wind and sun even normally also it gets red and inflamed. My doctor has suggested me mometasone furoate cream and clindamycin phosphate and nicotinamide gel to use together. But I doubt would that be helpful or harm my skin more?

stop it...Fungal infection or Ring worm.. when occurs in groin, called as jock itch.. Usually fungal infection is common in moist areas of body like skin folds..It's mostly circular or round in appearance.. May be red or black in colour.. Treatment depending on the type and severity.. Avoid sharing clothes, towels and soap; sweating also increases it..As it has to be differentiated from eczema and infection, its a must to see and confirm the diagnosis for proper treatment..So, please send photos...more

You can apply aloe vera juice/gel from its leaf (fresh, not from readymade
gels available in market) on your face. Remove skin of an aloe vera leaf. Take/scoop out gel. Apply this gel to your face skin. Wash with plain water after an hour.

Hi, any medicated cream can be prescribed only for a few weeks. For long-term use, prefer a routine of moisturizer (dermadew aloe lotion) and sunscreen (faceguard) during the day.

No. Don't use its steroidal cream.
